Description

Distillates, Wood-Tar is a complex mixture of organic compounds derived from the destructive distillation of wood. This versatile material serves as a valuable source of phenolic compounds, aromatic hydrocarbons, and other chemical intermediates for industrial synthesis. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the chemical processing, construction, and specialty materials sectors seeking sustainable, bio-based feedstocks.

Application

• As a feedstock for the production of wood preservatives and creosote.
• As a source of phenolic compounds for resin synthesis in adhesives and coatings.
• As a flavoring agent and smoke flavor in the food industry (specific food-grade grades).
• As a raw material for the manufacture of carbon black and other carbon-based products.
• In the formulation of specialty chemicals for the rubber and plastic industries.
• As a component in veterinary and pharmaceutical ointments and antiseptics.
• For the production of insulating and waterproofing materials in construction.
• As a starting material for the isolation of specific organic compounds like guaiacol and cresols.

Quality Control

Our Distillates, Wood-Tar is produced and controlled under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure consistency and compliance with agreed-upon specifications, which may include parameters for phenol content, specific gravity, distillation range, and solubility. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize evaporation and absorption of moisture.
