Cresols are organic compounds called methylphenols that used as precursors to plastics, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and dyes. There are three forms of cresols - ortho-cresol, meta-cresol, and para-cresol - that occur separately or as a mixture called cresylic acid or tricresol.

Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 07/28/2016 --Cresols are aromatic organic compounds of monomethyl phenols that are widely used as precursors or chemical intermediates in the production of polymer resins, plasticizers, antioxidants, solvents, vitamin E, rubbers, pharmaceuticals, fragrances, dyes, and other chemicals. There are three forms of cresols: ortho-cresol (o-cresol), meta-cresol (m-cresol), and para-cresol (p-cresol). They differ slightly in their chemical structure. These forms occur separately or as a mixture.
