 Phenol Formaldehyde resin
Acid catalysed phenol formaldehyde resins are made with a molar ratio of formaldehyde to phenol of less than one and are called novolacs.
Phenol, formaldehyde, water and catalyst are mixed in the desired amount, depending on the resin to be formed, and are then heated.
Formaldehyde in solution does not exist as the aldhehyde, but instead a dynamic equilibrium is formed creating a range of methylene glycol oligomers, and the concentration of the reactive form of formaldehyde depends on the exact conditions (temperature, pH) under which the reaction occurs.

The phenol/formaldehyde resins utilized in the subject binders are preferably prepared conventionally, i.e., under basic conditions using an excess of formaldehyde to produce a water reducible resin containing little unreacted phenol, but a substantial excess of formaldehyde.
To reduce excess formaldehyde in the phenol/formaldehyde resin, traditional amino-group containing formaldehyde scavengers alone or in conjunction with other formaldehyde scavengers such as polyacrylic acid or mixtures of polyacrylic acid or other polycarboxylic acids with a polyol or polyhydroxypolymer such as glycerine, polyglycerol, polyvinylalcohol, and the like, may be used.
In general, the formaldehyde content of the resin is adjusted such that from 10 to about 50 parts by weight, preferably 20 parts by weight to 40 parts by weight of urea or other nitrogenous scavenger are used for each 100 parts by weight of total resin solids.
