Pa. Mahanwar et Dd. Kale, EFFECT OF CASHEW NUT SHELL LIQUID (CNSL) ON PROPERTIES OF PHENOLIC RESINS, Journal of applied polymer science, 61(12), 1996, pp. 2107-2111
Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is a natural product, and because of it
s phenolic nature it undergoes reactions similar to those of phenol. T
he cost of CNSL is much less than phenol. The effect of replacement of
phenol by CNSL on the properties of novolak and resole resins was exp
erimentally investigated. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
