General description: | Resorcinol, a dihydric phenol, is a key component of hair dyeing products. Studies in B16-F10 melanoma cells have revealed that it minimizes melanin production, making it a potential hypopigmenting agent.It serves as a cross-linking agent to produce resorcinol-formaldehyde resin, adhesives, rubbers, and composite materials. |
