Background
Phenol formaldehyde resin is based on phenol, resorcinol and formaldehyde containing methylol phenols. When phenol reacts with an excess of formaldehyde under alkaline conditions, a resol resin is produced. As formaldehyde is in excess in the process, various methylol phenol compunds are formed. the resol resins are formable, fusbile and soluble. They can be considered as prepolymers and may be transformed into the final stage simply by heating the resol. Commercially, phenol-formaldehyde resins are most commonly based on phenol itself but other phenols such as cresols, xylenols, resorcinol, bishenol A, and p-tert-butylphenol and nonlyphenol can be used.
