Synthesis of solid resorcinol–formaldehyde resin modified with styrene with the use of a shale phenol fraction with a boiling temperature higher than 270°C

Abstract

The synthesis of modified solid resorcinol–formaldehyde resins based on resorcinol and a fraction of water-soluble shale alkylresorcinols (T_b > 270°C) was studied. Styrene was used as a modifier. Data on the quality of the target products depending on a molar ratio between the initial components were acquired.
