Abstract
The present invention relates to an AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer having a resole like structure. In particular the invention is directed to an AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer, a method of preparing the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer, a composition comprising the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer, and uses thereof. In one aspect, the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer is derived from repeating units of A and B, wherein repeating unit A is independently selected from the following structures: and wherein repeating unit B is independently selected from the following structures:

- —H, —C1 to C20 alkyl, —C2 to C20 alkenyl, —C2 to C20 alkynyl, —C3 to C20 cycloalkyl, and —C1 to C20 alkyloxy;
- each R4 is independently selected from:
- —H, —C1 to C20 alkyl, —C2 to C20 alkenyl, —C2 to C20 alkynyl, —C3 to C20 cycloalkyl, —C3 to C20 heterocycloalkyl, an optionally substituted —C6 to C10 aryl, and an optionally substituted —C2 to C10 heteroaryl;
- each R5 is independently a suitable leaving group;
- each x is independently selected from:
- 0, 1, and 2, with the proviso that at least one x value within the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer is 1 or 2;
- each y is independently selected from:
- 0, 1, 2, and 3;
- each z is independently selected from:
- 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4;
- and
- wherein the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer comprises at least two A repeating units and at least one B repeating unit, and wherein the AB co-polymer or AB co-oligomer comprises no more than 45 A repeating units and B repeating units in total.
