Plastics are produced by reacting at least one compound containing sulfonic acid groups with at least one aldehyde in the presence of a hydroxy compound in an acidic concentrated aqueous solution having a water content of about 20 to 30% by weight. If a tenside is present the reactants will form a foam. The preferred sulfonic acid-containing compound is the sodium salt of diisobutylnaphthalene sulfonic acid, the preferred hydroxy compound is a phenol, vix. resorcinol, and the preferred aldehyde is formaldehyde which may be formed in situ from hexamethylenetetramine, paraformaldehyde, trioxane, or the like. |
