Origin:
The term "carbolic" was first used in 1834 by the French chemist Auguste Laurent to describe a colourless, crystalline compound (phenol) that he obtained from coal tar. The name is derived from the Greek word "karbolicos", meaning "of or relating to carbon", as phenol is a hydrocarbon that contains only carbon and hydrogen.
