Abstract
Modified resole and novolac type phenolic resins which are toughened by poly(alkylene oxide) are disclosed. The modified resole type phenolic resin is prepared by the following steps: mixing a poly(alkylene oxide) having a weight average molecular weight of 100,000.about.8,000,000 and phenol in a weight ratio of poly(alkylene oxide): phenol=1.5:1.about.1:1 at an elevated temperature to form a glutinous mixture; mixing the glutinous mixture with an acid catalyst to obtain a viscous mixture having a relatively low viscosity compared to the glutinous mixture; and mixing the viscose mixture with a resole type phenolic resin. The modified novolac type phenolic resin is prepared by directly mixing the glutinous mixture with a liquid novolac type phenolic resin. The amount of the poly(alkylene oxide) mixed is 2.about.10 wt % based on the phenolic resin.
