A rubber compounding resin which is low fuming, nonhygroscopic and low in free resorcinol. It is made by first reacting resorcinol or other phenolic compound and styrene or other vinyl compound in a molar ratio of 1.0 mole of resorcinol to 0.25 to 1.0 mole of styrene after which formaldehyde or other aldehyde is added in the amount of 0.5 to 0.7 moles. Alternatively, the resorcinol can first be reacted with the formaldehyde after which the styrene is added. The composition resulting from the above procedure has been identified as having the structure <IMAGE> wherein X is hydroxyl, hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. An intermediate in making the above compound has been identified as having the structure.
