Abstract

In the manufacture of creep-free prepregs based on phenolic resins of the resole type, the reinformcing agents are impregnated with an essentially solvent-free mixture of a phenolic resin and a viscosity controlling amount up to 60% by weight of the resin of an alkali metal metaborate or an alkaline-earth metaborate or a mixture thereof. The resultant compression molded articles exhibit improved strengths.
