Extraction Of Cashew Nut Shell Oil And Cardanol

The Portuguese introduced cashew (Botanical name AnacardiumOccidentale) to India four centuries ago, mostly to reduce soil erosion. The second most popular tree nut in international commerce circles is the cashew, which is followed by the almond. Cardanol is a phenol derived from anacardic acid, which is the major component of cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a byproduct of the cashew nut manufacturing process. Cardanol is utilised in resins, coatings, frictional materials, and surfactants used as pigment dispersants in water-based inks in the chemical industry. Cardanol is obtained by distilling CNSL under decreased pressure. The residue will be high in cardanol, which is commonly known as residol and can be utilised to make friction dust for brake linings as well as rubber compounding formulations. The liquid from cashew nuts is used in a variety of polymer-based industries, including paints and varnishes, resins, industrial and ornamental laminates, brake linings, and rubber compounding resins. The cashew apple and its juice have a wide range of medical applications. It is an excellent purgative and an useful cure for survey, cough, and cold. Cashew nut wood is used for fuel and charcoal production. Corrugated and rigid board boxes are made from its wood pulp. The outside skin of the cashew nut is soft and feathery, whereas the inner layer is thin and firm. The honeycomb structure between these skins contains the phenolic compound known as Cashew Nut Shell Liquid, abbreviated as CNSL. The kernel, shell, and testa of the cashew nut are made up of 20 to 25 percent kernel, 60-70 percent cashew nut shell, and 2-5 percent testa on average. The shells can be burned to generate heat for the decorticating processes, and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is an important industry raw material for resin synthesis. Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL), the liquid contained within the shell casing of the cashew, has a number of industrial applications. Few Indian Major Players 1. Golden Cashew Products Pvt. Ltd. 2.
