Application

Para Tert Butyl Phenol (PTBP) is mainly used in the manufacture of PTBP formaldehyde resins & Ethylene-Oxide condensates.
PTBP -formaldehyde resins are used in the manufacture of oil-soluble phenolic and modified phenolic reisns for surface coating applications. These coatings when used along with suitable drying oils give films having good flexibility, better strength, improved heat and light resistance etc.
PTBP- formaldehyde resins find application as tackifiers for synthetic rubber and as adhesives in the tyre industry. They are also used in vulcanisation of natural and synthetic rubbers.
PTBP resins can be ethoxylated with Ethylene Oxide to form compounds which are used as demulsifiers in the petroleum industry.
Hydrogenation of PTBP is useful in the manufacture of perfumes and odourants for the soap and cosmetic industries.
PTBP is widely used as an intermediate in the manufacture of oil additives, polymerisation modifier for polycarbonate resins, ultraviolet light stabilizers, rubber chemicals, antiflex cracking agent, in brake and clutch linings, corrosion inhibitors and in insecticides.
