Phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins
Phenol formaldehyde resins (PF) include synthetic thermosetting resins such as obtained by the reaction of phenols with formaldehyde.
Phenolic resins are mainly used in the production of circuit boards.
They are better known however for the production of molded products including pool balls, laboratory countertops, and as coatings and adhesives.
In the form of Bakelite, they are the earliest commercial synthetic resin.
