AbstractTo prove the main cross‐linking reaction between amidated polybutadiene and resole, cross‐condensation reactions involving simple amide compounds and resole were examined. Amide compounds having both an amide group and a carboxylic acid group inhibited the self‐condensation of resole itself. The cross‐condensation products obtained from succinamic acid and 2‐methylolphenol were separated using a preparative chromatography method to identify the cross‐condensed products in which the main products were cross‐condensed oligomers having an imide linkage. A cross‐condensation scheme was proposed, and it was concluded that the main cross‐linking reaction between amidated polybutadiene and resole also followe
