Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is a natural product, and because of its phenolic nature it undergoes reactions similar to those of phenol. The cost of CNSL is much less than phenol. The effect of replacement of phenol by CNSL on the properties of novolak and resole resins was experimentally investigated. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
