Lot‐to‐lot variations in a phenol/cresol‐formaldehyde resin were fully characterized. Resin property‐product hardness relationships were examined to elucidate the cause of variable hardness in product insulators and to establish acceptance criteria for the resin. A high methylol content (ϕCH 2 OH), determined by quantitative carbon‐13 nuclear magnetic resonance ( 13 C‐NMR), and a narrow molecular weight distribution ( MWD ), determined by size exclusion chromatography, were found necessary for resin to produce insulator meeting the minimum Shore D durometer specification of 40.
