It is also an important organic chemical raw material used in oilfield industry. Phenolic resin, caprolactam, bisphenol A, salicylic acid, picric acid, pentachlorophenol, phenolphthalein, n-acetylethoxyaniline and other chemical products and intermediates can be prepared with it. In chemical raw materials, alkyl phenols, synthetic fibers, plastics, synthetic rubber, resin manufacturing, medicine, pesticides, spices, dyes, coatings and oil refining industry has a wide range of applications.
Phenol vapor condenses into dust in cooler air. Contact with the skin can cause poisoning. Skin contact with aqueous phenol or pure phenol is quickly stimulated to produce local anesthesia, which then becomes ulcerated. General acute poisoning with a sense of weakness, dizziness, tinnitus, sweating. It can damage the kidneys in the body. The equipment on the production site should be sealed. Operators should wear protective equipment. The maximum allowable concentration in the workplace air is 5 x 10-6.

Physical and Chemical Properties
Phenol is an organic compound appreciably soluble in water, with about 84.2 g dissolving in 1000 mL (0.895 M). Homogeneous mixtures of phenol and water at phenol to water mass ratios of ~2.6 and higher are possible. The sodium salt of phenol, sodium phenoxide, is far more water-soluble. It is a combustible solid (NFPA rating = 2). When heated, phenol produces flammable vapors that are explosive at concentrations of 3 to 10% in air. Carbon dioxide or dry chemical extinguishers should be used to fight phenol fires.

Application
a.The major uses of phenol, involve its conversion to precursors for plastics. Condensation with acetone gives bisphenol-A, a key precursor to polycarbonates and epoxide resins.
b.Partial hydrogenation of phenol gives cyclohexanone, a precursor to nylon.
c.Nonionic detergents are produced by alkylation of phenol to give the alkylphenols, e.g., nonylphenol, which are then subjected to ethoxylation.
d.Phenol is also a versatile precursor to a large collection of drugs, most notably aspirin but also many herbicides and pharmaceutical drugs.
e.Phenol is a component in liquid–liquid phenol–chloroform extraction technique used in molecular biology for obtaining nucleic acids from tissues or cell culture samples. Depending on the pH of the solution either DNA or RNA can be extracted.
f.Phenol was widely used as an antiseptic.
g.Phenol is a component of industrial paint strippers used in the aviation industry for the removal of epoxy, polyurethane and other chemically resistant coatings.
