Synthesis and properties of eco-friendly novolac phenolic resin from liquefied coir husk / Nor Mazlina Abdul Wahab … [et al.]

Phenolic resin is thermoset plastics that had been widely used in various applications such as the production of furniture, insulation, friction, coating and moulding. Phenolic resin is conventionally produced by reaction of phenol and formaldehyde whereby phenol was synthesized from petroleum sourc...
