Pure alkylresorcinols, like 5-methylresorcinol (both in anhydrous
and monohydrate form), 2,5-dimethylresorcinol, p-Orsellinic acid,
3-hydroxy-5-methoxytoluene and 3,5-dimethoxytoluene are the basic
products in Fine Chemicals line.
5-methylresorcinol was produced in several tons worldwide, we can
make it in hundreds of tons; several of other fine chemicals we have
noted can also be produced if they will be needed.
5-methylresorcinol is something incredible - it is almost 4 times
less toxic than Resorcinol or 2-methylresorcinol and can be used in
most of the applications these compounds are used in - it is
valuable raw material for pharmaceuticals, analgesics, food
additives, cosmetics, fragrances, biocides, fungicides, dyes, hair
dyes, high value photoactive resins and novolacs for electronics
industry, additives for plastic and rubber industry -UV protectors,
antioxidants, stabilizers...
P-Orsellinic acid is like salicylic acid, it tastes like aspirin and
is excellent additive for capacitor electrolytes. P-Orsellinic acid
methyl ester is a raw material for inhibitors of eosinophils,
modulators of cysteine protease etc.
