Para-tertiary-butylphenol formaleic-anhydride.html">maldehyde resin (PTBPF-R) is formed through the polycondensation of para-tertiary-butylphenol and formaldehyde. Common industrial exposure scenarios include neoprene glues and bonding agents used in shoemaking, leather processing, and automotive manufacturing. This substance also serves as a preservative for crates and furniture, and is used in manufacturing foundry molds, brake linings, insulated wires, adhesives, printing inks, and paper laminates. Para-tertiary-butylphenol acts as the main sensitizing component.
