Phenol Liquid
Aqueous solution of phenol is weakly acidic and turns blue litmus slightly to red. Phenol is easily neutralized by sodium hydroxide forming sodium phenate or phenolate, but it being weaker than carbonic acid cannot be neutralized by sodium bicarbonate or

Phenol Liquids are made from the strong hydrogen bonds. These fluids are highly soluble in water and are accessible with higher boiling points. These can be stored at room temperature and are highly caustic as well as toxic. These can be used in several household products. These liquids are also utilized as the excellent intermediates for industrial synthesis. Phenol Liquids are used as the starting material for drugs and paints. Their resins are waterproof as well as heat-resistant.
It is used for disinfecting skin and to relieve itching.
