In this study, Bio-Phenolic Furfural resins was synthesized from oil palm Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) fibres via liquefaction process using phenol, sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid, followed by resinification reaction with furfural in alkaline condition. The method that has been used in this research...
