Abstract

The wood of the wallaba tree (Eperua sp.) of British Guiana contains a high proportion of an alcohol‐soluble resin of a phenolic type. It is shown that this resin can be converted by controlled destructive distillation into a metallurgical coke of high purity and good physical properties. The volatile products of the distillation include a complex mixture of phenols which has useful fungicidal properties, and a combustible gas.
