Acetone–formaldehyde (AF) resin having the methylol group (–CH2OH) has been prepared and characterized. The condensation of AF resin with phenol (P) was carried out in the presence of alcoholic alkali catalyst at varying ratios of AF:P, namely 1:1, 1:1.5 and 1:2. The resultant AFP resins were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectral studies, number average molecular weight (Mn) estimated by non-aqueous conductometric titration, and thermogravimetry. The curing study of AFP resins with hexamethylene tetramine (HMTA) was monitored by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and kinetic parameters were evaluated.

Glass-reinforced composites based on the AFP–HMTA system have also been prepared and characterized.
