## Abstract The hydroxymethylation of phenol has been re‐investigated in the pH range 8.5‐12.5 at 30° in dilute aqueous solutions. The following rate equation covers the results quantitatively: in which [F], [P] and [P^−^] denote the concentrations of the formaldehyde molecules, phenol molecules
In the present study, a quick method for the determination of composition of the resin formed by alkaline-catalyzed cardanol-formaldehyde reaction has been suggested. The complete analysis of the product could be carried out by determining experimentally the concentration of only one reactant, viz.,
