CNSL is one of the best sources to produce biorenewable chemicals, materials and energy.
It is used as antioxidants in the production of bio-diesel. A byproduct of cashew apple and cashew nut production, it is separated and extracted into oils, which could be refined further into cardanol. Additionally, CNSL has been used for years in the manufacturing of friction materials, in binding constituents and as friction enhancers. Other uses include paints, resins, and more.
Cashew nut Shell liquid (CNSL) is a reddish brown viscous liquid extracted from a soft honeycomb structure inside the cashew nutshell. Being renewable, it offers much advantage over synthetics. The product is 100% pure nature and therefore falls in the category of a biodegradable product.
CNSL has several applications; from addition for the coating industry till foundry chemicals or usage in the automotive industry.
Application: Cashew Nut Shell Liquid has innumerable applications in polymer based industries such as friction linings, paints and varnishes, laminating resins, rubber compounding resins, cashew cements, polyurethane based polymers, surfactants, epoxy resins, foundry chemicals and intermediates for chemical industry.
Advantages of CNSL based Polymers:
1) Improved Flexibility and reduced brittleness.
2) Solubility in Organic Solvents.
3) Improved Processability.
4) Low Fade Characteristics for Friction.

Cashew nut shell liquid or cnsl or cashew nut oil or cashew shell oil or cnsl oil is a versatile by product of the cashew industry. The nut has a shell of about 1/8 inch thickness inside which is a soft honey comb structure containing a dark reddish brown viscous liquid.It is called cashew nut shell liquid or cnsl. Which is the pericap fluid of the cashew nut. It is often considered as the better and cheaper material for unsaturated phenols
