CIDE DICTIONARY
creosote, n. [Gr. kre`as, gen. kre`ws, flesh + sw`zein to preserve.].
Wood-tar oil; an oily antiseptic liquid, of a burning smoky taste, colorless when pure, but usually colored yellow or brown by impurity or exposure. It is a complex mixture of various phenols and their ethers, and is obtained by the distillation of wood tar, especially that of beechwood. [1913 Webster]
" It is remarkable as an antiseptic and deodorizer in the preservation of wood, flesh, etc., and in the prevention of putrefaction; but it is a poor germicide, and in this respect has been overrated. Smoked meat, as ham, owes its preservation and taste to a small quantity of creosote absorbed from the smoke to which it is exposed. Carbolic acid phenol{1} creosote is a mixture of several phenols."
[1913 Webster]
creosote, v. t.
To saturate or impregnate with creosote, as timber, for the prevention of decay.
