General description

4-Phenylphenol undergoes enzymatic polymerization and polymer developed is characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. It is the intermediate in manufacture of 4-alkyl substituted phenol-formaldehyde resins.

Application

4-Phenylphenol was used in the synthesis of a novel polyphosphazene polyelectrolyte as a dispersing agent of single-walled carbon nanotubes in water.
