Abstract: A phenolic resin having not more than 5 wt% of free bisphenol and a molecular weight distribution Mw/Mn of not more than 2.0 is prepared by reacting a bisphenol and aldehyde in the presence of an alkaline catalyst at a temperature of from 0° C. to 100° C., neutralizing with an acid, adding an acid to adjust the pH to from 0 to 6, heating to a temperature of from 50° C. to 200° C, and vacuuming to recover the phenolic resin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel phenolic resin, which is characterized that the content of free bisphenol contained therein is not more than 5 wt %, and it has a narrow molecular weight distribution represented by Mw/Mn that is not more than 2.0. The present invention also relates to a method for preparing the novel phenolic resin described above and an epoxy resin composition in which the phenolic resin is used as a curing agent.
