WHAT DOES CRESOL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Cresol

Cresols are organic compounds which are methylphenols. They are a widely occurring natural and manufactured group of aromatic organic compounds, which are categorized as phenols. Depending on the temperature, cresols can be solid or liquid because they have melting points not far from room temperature. Like other types of phenols, they are slowly oxidized by long exposure to air and the impurities often give cresols a yellowish to brownish red tint. Cresols have an odor characteristic to that of other simple phenols, reminiscent to some of a "coal tar" smell. The name creosol reflects their structure, being phenols, and their traditional source, creosote.

Definition of cresol in the English dictionary

Formula: C6H4OH Also called: cresylic acid Systematic name: methylphenol.
