Frequently asked questions

What is phenol (90% aqueous solution) commonly used for?

Phenol is widely used in the production of plastics (e.g., phenol-formaldehyde resins), pharmaceuticals, disinfectants, and as a precursor for bisphenol A (BPA). It also serves as a solvent and in chemical synthesis.

What is the chemical formula and molecular weight of phenol?

The chemical formula is **C₆H₅OH**, and the molecular weight is **94.11 g/mol** (for the anhydrous form; the 90% aqueous solution adjusts this proportionally).

How should phenol (90% aqueous solution) be stored?

Store in a tightly sealed container at **ambient temperature**, away from heat, sparks, and incompatible substances (e.g., oxidizing agents). Ensure proper ventilation due to its toxic and corrosive nature.

What grades or purities of phenol does Molekula supply?

Molekula supplies **90% aqueous phenol solution** as standard; higher purities (e.g., 99%+ anhydrous) may be available upon request—confirm specifications during ordering.

Can Molekula supply phenol in bulk quantities?

Yes, bulk quantities of phenol (90% aqueous solution) are available; minimum order quantities and packaging options (e.g., drums, IBCs) vary—contact our sales team for details.

What documentation comes with a phenol order?

Each order includes a **Certificate of Analysis (CoA)**, **Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS/SDS)**, and **packing list**. Additional documentation (e.g., batch-specific reports) may be provided upon request.
