A series of the syntheses of phenol–formaldehyde resoles was carried out in the presence of trimethyl‐, triethyl‐, tripropyl‐, and tributylamines and sodium hydroxide as catalysts for this process. The rate constants were calculated for the partial reactions identified in the synthesis. Also, the performance properties of the resins obtained and the hardened resin samples were estimated in simple tests. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 77: 898–902, 2000
