Application
Used in dye industry, plastic industry, medicine, rubber, etc. Resorcinol is mainly used in rubber adhesives, synthetic resins, dyes, preservatives, pharmaceuticals and analytical reagents. Resorcinol is similar to phenol and cresol, and generates condensation compounds with formaldehyde. It can be used to make adhesives for viscose yarn and nylon tire cord, prepare wood adhesives, and bond vinyl materials with metals. Resorcinol is an intermediate of many azo dyes and fur dyes, It is also the raw material of pharmaceutical intermediate p-aminosalicylic acid. Resorcinol has a bactericidal effect and can be used as an antiseptic and added to cosmetics and skin disease drug pastes and ointments. Derivatives of resorcinol β- Methyl umbelliferone is an intermediate of optical bleach, trinitroresorcinol is a detonator initiator, and a considerable amount of resorcinol is used to produce benzophenone type UV absorbers. This product can irritate the skin and mucous membrane, and can be quickly absorbed through the skin to cause poisoning symptoms.
