Abstract: There is disclosed N-substituted arylamino-phenol-formaldehyde condensates which are substantially free of water, contain not more than 2% by weight of a phenol and possess unobvious properties, e.g., which have the residues of an N-substituted arylamine and 1.5 to 3 moles of formaldehyde for each mole of the said arylamine, contain from about 35% to 63% by weight of phenol residue, contain at least 3.5% by weight of nitrogen, have a melt viscosity of less than 2,000 cps at 175° C., a hydroxyl equivalent of about 195 to 220, a Methanol Tolerance of at least 40%, high solubility in organic solvents commonly used in epoxy formulations, and are self-catalyzing curatives for epoxy resins.
