Phenolic resins or phenol resins are synthetic polymers derived from the reaction between phenol and formaldehyde. These resins were known as the first commercial resins used in the production of molded products such as billiard balls and laboratory countertops. Phenolic resins are also used as adhesives and coasting. A wide variety of phenolic resins are available, such as formaldehyde-free phenolic resin, bio-phenolic resin, resole resin, novolac resin, and cresol resin. They are used in several industrial activities owing to their properties such as high mechanical strength, moisture resistance, heat resistance, adhesion, and more.

Global Phenolic Resins Market was valued at US$ 14605.0 Million in 2021 in terms of revenue, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.84 % during the forecast period (2022 to 2030).

Phenol resins are used to create various kinds of materials. They are environmentally friendly and can be used to make particle board, plywood, and laminated wood. These materials are classified as phenol-formaldehyde resins and found in a number of consumer products. Phenol resins are also commonly used in automobile and steel/iron applications. They have excellent heat resistance and durability. They are often used to make clutches, brake pads, and automatic transmission parts as well as laminates for automobile interiors. Moreover, these resins are used in electrical devices, electronics, and marine applications.

Phenolic resins can be classified into resol and novolac. Resole resins are methylol-bearing resins while novolac resins are non-methylol-bearing resins. Phenolic resins are also used in a wide range of applications, including aerospace, mine ventilation, ballistics, offshore water pipe systems, and rail and mass transit. Phenolic resins are good for high-temperature applications. Moreover, they are used a skin protective agent and offer excellent skin protection properties. Furthermore, it is an odorless, colorless, and caustic chemical that is derived from natural gas and used in most of the artificial preservatives in food.

Thus, there is an increase in demand for phenolic resins worldwide. Krahn Chemie GMBH, Mitsui Chemicals Europe GmbH, Paul Tiefenbacher GmbH, VELOX GmbH, Willers Engel & Co. GmbH & Co., CTS Composite Technologie Systeme GmbH, and DSM Composite Resins Deutschland GmbH are some major phenolic resin importers in Germany.
