BAKELITE MOULDING POWDER MANUFACTURING
[CODE NO.3082]
Of the synthetic resins probably the best known and most widely employed is bakelity. This is produced by a reaction between phenol (carbolic acid) and formaldehyde, a product of wood distillation. Carried to a certain stage, the reaction produces a hard resinous substance known as Bakelite resin A. this is an amber coloured substance soluble in alcohol, acetone and other organic solvents, the melting point being approximately 120 deg. F. further application of heat changes the resin into a state in which it is still fusible but insoluble. This is known as the B stage. If heat is again applied the resin is reduced to the C stage, when it is both infusible and insoluble. Bakelite resin C is obtainable in the form of slabs, rods and sections. It can be machined, and is largely used for imitation jewellery, handles for domestic utensils, cigarette holders and similar purposes.
These are one of the earliest plastics. Thermosetting resins of the Polymer type with high electrical insulation properties Polymer moulding powder was the first thermosetting plastic to be produced in the country.
Polymer implies a wide variety of products resullery from the reaction of phenols and aldehydes.
The Polymer reactier products may be a liquid or a solution a solid or a powder and it may be pure polymer or modifeed with fillers or polymeric compounds.
