Alkylresorcinols
We extract a valuable alkylresorcinol mixture from shale oil.
Total shale oil phenols contain mono-, di-, and trialkylresorcinols, but the main component of the alkylresorcinol mixture is 5-methylresorcinol. We produce various shale oil phenol fractions, such as Honeyol and Rezol, for different applications. The composition of the mixture allows oil shale alkylresorcinols to substitute for resorcinols, bisphenol A and synthetic phenol.
Our products can be used for a variety of purposes, such as being key elements of finished goods and intermediary products used to produce finished goods, and to increase the functionality and durability of the goods.
Honeyol™
Honeyol is an alkylresorcinol fraction with a boiling point of 270-320 0С. It consists of 100% resorcinol derivates and has a 5-methylresorcinol content of at least 48%. Honeyol is an effective substitute for resorcinol in various manufacturing processes. The alkyl radicals grant the finished product a higher degree of water and heat resistance and UV-resistance.
Uses as Raw Material:
- Manufacture of adhesive resins in tire and rubber industries;
- Adhesive resins for the wood processing industry;
- Tamping for adhesive resins manufacture;
- Rubber modifiers;
- Phenolic resin manufacture.

Rezol™
Rezol is an alkylresorcinols fraction with a boiling point above 270 0С. It consists of 5-methylresorcinol (at least 40%) and other resorcinol derivates. Its high proportion of hydroxyl groups makes it a suitable alternative raw material for epoxy resin manufacture.
Uses as Raw Material
- Tamping for adhesive resins manufacture;
- Epoxy resin manufacture
