Abstract
SynopsisWith the objective of high durability and heat-resistance biomass resin development, new eco-friendly phenolic resin was synthesized starting from starch. Newly developed PHENOLIC BIOMASS RESIN, which was cured by epoxyresin, provided comparable performances to those of conventional phenolic resin for high heat resistance and mechanical properties. And also, it showed its excellent water resistant property. As further development, EPOXIDIZED BIOMASS RESIN was synthesized. EPOXIDIZED BIOMASS RESIN which was cured by PHENOLIC BIOMASS RESIN showed excellent mechanical properties.
