1. Phenol is an important organic chemical raw material, widely used in the production of phenolic resin and bisphenol A, in which bisphenol A is important raw material for polycarbonate, epoxy resin, polysulfone resin and other plastics. In some cases the phenol is used to produce iso-octylphenol, isononylphenol, or isododecylphenol through addition reaction with long-chain olefins such as diisobutylene, tripropylene, tetra-polypropylene and the like, which are used in production of nonionic surfactants. In addition, it can also be used as an important raw material for caprolactam, adipic acid, dyes, medicines, pesticides and plastic additives and rubber auxiliaries.

3. Phenol is frequently used for medical chemical face peels. It may trap free radicals and can act as a preservative. Phenol, however, is an extremely caustic chemical with a toxicity potential. It is considered undesirable for use in cosmetics. even at low concentrations, it frequently causes skin irritation, swelling, and rashes.
Main application:
Phenol is an important organic chemical raw material.
It can be used to produce phenolic resin, caprolactam, bisphenol A, salicylic acid, picric acid, pentachlorophenol, 2,4-D, adipic
acid, phenolphthalein n-acetoxyaniline and other chemical products and intermediates.
It has important applications in chemical raw materials, alkyl phenols, synthetic fibers, plastics, synthetic rubber, perfumes,
dyes, coatings and oil refining.
In addition, phenol can also be used as a solvent, experimental reagent and disinfectant. An aqueous solution of phenol can
separate proteins on the chromosomes of plant cells from DNA, and facilitate DNA staining.
