[Link to Product Documents] Phenol Our phenol is primarily sold to producers of phenolic resins and to manufacturers of engineered plastics. Phenolic resins are used extensively as adhesives for wood products such as plywood and chipped wood panels. Engineered plastics are used in compact discs, automobiles, household appliances, electronics and protective coating applications. We also sell phenol for use in insulation, electrical parts, oil additives and pharmaceuticals. Acetone As a co-product of phenol, acetone further diversifies our revenue base. The primary uses for acetone are as a key ingredient in acrylic resins and as an ingredient for surface coating resins for automotive and architectural markets. Acetone is also an intermediate for the production of engineered plastics and several major industrial solvents. Other uses range from solvents for automotive and industrial applications to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Cumene About 35% of our cumene is consumed internally in 2005 to produce phenol and acetone. Cumene production not used internally is sold to other phenol and acetone manufacturers. ©2010 Georgia Gulf Corporation. Please review our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
