Product Description

General description:

Chemical Formula: C6H5OH

Phenol is an aromatic hydrocarbon compound composed of a benzene ring with a hydroxyl group. It is a colorless to light-pink, crystalline solid with a sweet, acrid odor.

Application & Usage:

It is used as a raw material to make phenolic resins and bisphenol A which in turn is a raw material for epoxy resins.
It is also used as a raw material for a variety of dyes, surfactants, disinfectants, agricultural chemicals, pharmaceuticals,

Versatile Industrial Applications

Phenol serves as a fundamental raw material in manufacturing plastics, resins, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. Its ability to act as a disinfectant further broadens its application in sanitation products. Industrial and laboratory sectors value its high purity and consistent quality, making it a reliable choice for specialized syntheses and formulations.

Safe Handling and Storage Requirements

Proper handling is critical due to phenols toxic and corrosive nature. It should be stored in tightly closed containers away from heat, moisture, and incompatible substances such as oxidizers, strong acids, and bases. Use protective gear when handling, and ensure storage areas are cool, dry, and well-ventilated to minimize risk.

Environmental and Transport Considerations

Classified as hazardous (Hazard Classes 6.1 & 8), phenol poses significant ecotoxic risks and should not be released into waterways. It complies with IMDG code 6.1/III for transport and is shipped under UN Number 1671. Adhering to packaging and shipping standards ensures safe and compliant delivery worldwide.

FAQs of Phenol 108-95-2:

Q: How should phenol (CAS 108-95-2) be handled and stored safely?

A: Phenol must be handled with appropriate protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and clothing, as it is toxic and corrosive, and can be absorbed through the skin. Store it in a tightly sealed container, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as oxidizing agents, strong acids, and bases.

Q: What are the main industrial applications and uses of phenol?

A: Phenol is widely used as a precursor in the chemical synthesis of resins, plastics, dyestuffs, pharmaceuticals, and agrichemicals. It also serves as a laboratory reagent and is utilized in the formulation of disinfectants due to its antimicrobial properties.

Q: What packaging options and minimum quantity are available for phenol supply?

A: Phenol is typically supplied in 25 kg bags or drums, but customized packaging can be arranged as required. The minimum order quantity is 100 kg, catering to both industrial-scale and laboratory-scale needs.

Q: When is phenol considered hazardous during transport, and what precautions are necessary?

A: Phenol is classified as hazardous under Hazard Classes 6.1 (toxic) and 8 (corrosive), with UN Number 1671. During transport, it must be packaged securely, labeled correctly, and handled in accordance with the IMDG Code 6.1/III. Spillage or release should be prevented to avoid risks to health and the environment.

Q: Where can phenol from this supplier be exported and who can benefit from its use?

A: Phenol is available for export, supply, and trade from India to international destinations. It benefits manufacturers of plastics, resins, pharmaceuticals, and laboratories involved in research and chemical synthesis.

Q: What is the process for ordering phenol and ensuring product quality?

A: To order phenol, contact the supplier with your quantity requirements (minimum 100 kg) and packaging preferences. All consignments are shipped with a certificate of analysis verifying purity (99% min) and compliance with industrial or reagent grade specifications.

Q: What are the benefits of using high-purity phenol in chemical synthesis?

A: Utilizing phenol with a high purity (99% min) ensures reliable reactions in chemical synthesis, leading to consistent product quality and efficiency across applications such as pharmaceuticals, resins, and dyes.
