Abstract
Abstract Process for the preparation of a resin composition which comprises reacting a polybutadiene having a number average molecular weight of 150 to 10,000 and 1,4-structure of at least 80% by weight with a phenol in the presence of an acid catalyst to obtain a composition which consists of a polybutadiene-phenol adduct and unreacted phenol, in said polybutadiene-phenol adduct, one molecule of phenol per 3 to 8 butadiene units being added to the polybutadiene, and reacting the polybutadiene-phenol adduct composition with a formaldehyde in the presence of a basic catalyst. Said resin composition thus prepared is useful for the preparation of a laminated sheet having excellent curing characteristics, particularly excellent electrical characteristics, punchability and flexibility.
