Phenolic refers to a class of organic compounds that contain a phenol group, which is a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to an aromatic hydrocarbon ring, typically benzene. Phenolic compounds are diverse and can have various structures and properties. The term "phenolic" is often associated with materials derived from phenol, such as phenolic resins and phenolic compounds used in the production of plastics and resins.

Phenolic Resins: Phenolic resins, also known as phenol-formaldehyde resins, are synthetic polymers formed by the reaction of phenol (an aromatic alcohol) with formaldehyde. These resins have excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength. Phenolic resins are widely used as adhesives, binders, and coatings in various industries, including the production of plywood, laminates, and molded products.
Phenolic Compounds in Chemistry: In a broader chemical context, the term "phenolic" is used to describe compounds that contain a phenol group. Phenolic compounds can be natural or synthetic and are found in a variety of substances, including certain plants, foods, and pharmaceuticals. Examples of natural phenolic compounds include flavonoids, tannins, and various plant polyphenols.
