Background

4-tert-Butylphenol formaldehyde resin is an adhesive which has commonly been reported as a cause of allergic contact dermatitis particularly in shoes. It is used in shoes because of its durability and flexibilty. It is frequently used to bond leather, rubber to rubber, or rubber to metal surfaces.
Formaldehyde is not a primary allergen in this resin. Depigmentation has been reported to this agent without preceding inflammation.
