POLLUTION FREE METHOD OF MAKING PHENOL FORMALDEHYDE RESOLE, RESORCINOL(- FORMALDEHYDE LATEX), VINYL PYRIDINE COPOLYMER TIRECORD DIP AND PRODUCT Phenol formaldehyde resole is made by a low catalyst level process which eliminates the need to isolate the resin from the reaction mixture. The resole is blended with a vinyl pyridine latex and a resorcinol based curing agent and is used as a cord dip. The vinyl pyridine latex may be a latex blend. The dipped cord is used as reinforcement in rubber tires.
