Internal modification of novolac phenolic resin with polyethylene glycol

Polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG) has been used as a reactive plasticizer for commercial novolac phenolic resin (NR). The blends of oligomeric NR and PEG in mass ratios of 90:10, 80:20, and 70:30 were prepared and studied for their thermal properties by differential scanning calorime...
