Abstract

Fast pyrolysis can be used to convert a wide variety of biomass feedstocks into a low viscosity oil. A phenolic-rich (PN) fraction can then be extracted from this pyrolysis oil and used for preparation of phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins. Differences in the chemical properties of the PN fraction have a distinct impact on the performance of PF resins. When 25-45 weight percent of the monomeric phenol was replaced with PN the performance properties of properly formulated PN/PF resins compared favorably with those of commercial PF resins.
