The chemical name of bakelite is phenolic plastic, which is the first plastic product to be put into industrial production. It has high mechanical strength, good insulation, heat resistance and corrosion resistance, so it is often used in the manufacture of electrical materials such as switches, Lamp holder, earphone, telephone case, instrument case, etc.

Phenolic resins are widely used because of their wide sources, low prices, and good overall performance. The output of phenolic resins has ranked fifth among synthetic polymer polymers and ranked first among thermosetting resins. Among them, bakelite powder is the main variety of phenolic resin and its composite materials.

Although it is an ancient product, due to the availability of raw materials and low prices, it is particularly heat-resistant, flame-retardant, low smoke, stable product size, and electrical insulation. Excellent comprehensive performance such as good performance is still widely used in many industries such as electronics, electrical appliances, automobiles, meters, office appliances and household utensils.
