Overview

About CNSL Derivatives

Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is a natural phenolic oil extracted from the shell of the cashew nut. Its principal component, cardanol, is a renewable meta-substituted phenol used to make CNSL-based resins, friction dust and phenalkamine epoxy curing agents. These materials appear in coatings, brake and clutch linings, laminates, and industrial rubber compounds.

Zentish Exim supplies CNSL derivatives sourced from qualified Indian producers, with certificates of analysis and safety data sheets. India is one of the world's leading processors of cashew and CNSL. Grade and specification are reported per batch on request.
