| Title | Value added chemicals from Cashew Nut Shell Liquid(CNSL) |
| Knowhow is available for | Specialty monomers and polymers from CNSL that have wide ranging industrial and consumer applications |
| Summary | A range of difunctional monomers (dihalides, diacids, diisocyanates, diamines, diacyl hydrazides, diphenols, dialdehydes etc.) and polymer additives are produced utilizing 3-pendadecyl phenol derived from cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) using CSIR-NCL's technology. A host of high-performance polymers (polyimides, polyamides, polyesters, poly(amide-imide)s etc.) can be prepared using the difunctional monomers mentioned above.
|
| Advantages | -High performance polymers produced from CNSL have improved processability
-Produced from low cost raw materials that are widely available in India
-Possibility of significant value addition on CNSL
-Sustainable, renewable raw material source
