An aqueous resol solution produced by an alkaline condensation of a phenolic compound with an aldehyde in a molar ratio of 1:1.5 to 2.5 with an alkali metal content of 1 to 5.0% by weight of the reaction solution, neutralizing the solution after the end of condensation at least partially with an aromatic hydroxy carboxylic acid at a temperature not greater than 50.degree. C. and then concentrating the reaction mixture which is readily dilutable with water.

Aqueous resol solutions and preparation thereof

Binder mixture

A granular molding material with a binder comprising a phenol novolac and a polyisocyanate which hardens upon addition of amine catalysts wherein the molar ratio of phenol to formaldehyde in the novolac is 1:0.25 to 1:0.5 and has the formula ##STR1## wherein R, R' and R' are individually selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, hydroxy, cycloalkyl of 3 to 12 carbon atoms and an anellated ring and X is an integer from 0 to 4 or &gt;4 with the percent molar distribution based on X is as follows:

Novel molding materials

Improved high temperature resistant molding materials containing customary filler materials and additives and a carbon forming bonding agent which is a phenol novolac with a molar ratio of phenol to formaldehyde of 1 to 0.2 to 1 to 0.35 of high quality and free of solvents useful as refractory products, carbon materials, abrasive wheels, friction lining and the like.

High temperature resistant molding materials

A non-woven textiles comprising a web of organic fibers bonded together by a binder applied to the fibers as a powdered mixture of a non-heat reactive phenolic resin and at least one thermoreactive condensation resin selected from the group consisting of phenolic resins, epoxy resins and amino resins and then fused and a method of producing said textiles.

Non-woven textiles

Binders are described based on acid curing phenol resins and acid curing agents which, after mixing, have an extended processability time but nevertheless exhibit a rapid curing time at relatively low temperatures. They are obtained by using, as the resin, aqueous phenol resols and, as the curing agent, either copper, aluminum, or iron(III) salts of aromatic sulfonic acids or addition products of hydroxy-containing, water-compatible polyols with aromatic sulfonic acids or mixtures of these salts and the polyol addition products. The binders are used for impregnation of fabrics, for production of abrasives and for fiber reinforced plastics.

Multicomponent aqueous resole binder with extended processability time

Hardenable molding masses are disclosed containing an organic binder material, fillers and additives wherein the binder material after the shaping and hardening is pyrolytically decomposed. The development of harmful substances such as aromatic hydrocarbons is considerably reduced through the addition of a boron containing compound.
