Research Summary
Cardanol is a natural phenolic compound derived from the oil of cashew nut shells. It is a viscous liquid with a unique chemical structure, primarily composed of a phenolic hydroxyl group and a long hydrocarbon chain. Cardanol has gained attention as a renewable and sustainable raw material for various industrial applications. It possesses several desirable properties, including low viscosity, excellent thermal stability, high compatibility with other materials, and resistance to moisture and chemicals. Cardanol finds application in the production of resins, coatings, adhesives, surfactants, and specialty chemicals. It can be modified or chemically transformed to enhance specific properties or functionality. Cardanol-based products are valued for their eco-friendly nature and the reduced reliance on petroleum-based raw materials. The utilization of cardanol supports the development of greener and more sustainable alternatives in a wide range of industries.
