2. Description of the Related Art Novolak-type phenolic resins are widely used in various fields in the industrial world because of their excellent properties such as heat resistance, abrasion resistance, mechanical strength, electrical insulation, low smoke generation and acid resistance. Have been. These novolak-type phenolic resins are produced by charging phenols, aldehydes, catalysts, and the like in a lump or dividedly, and thereafter controlling the heating temperature, the reaction temperature, the reaction time, the pressure, and the like to a constant value. . However, a novolak type phenol resin is an oligomer having a molecular weight distribution, and when produced by a general-purpose plant by the above method, there is a variation in characteristic values between production lots. For example, the solution viscosity in a 50% ethanol solution is reduced. For example, a variation of 5 to 30% with respect to the average value is obtained. Therefore, in applications where the variation cannot be tolerated due to practical characteristics, a plurality of lots having different resin characteristics are blended and used so as to have target characteristic values.

[0003] Therefore, there is a strong demand for a novolak-type phenolic resin that can be used alone in one lot without using a novolak-type phenolic resin and that has little variation in characteristic values between production lots. In order to respond to these demands in recent years, the introduction of high-precision weighing machines and metering pumps has led to the improvement of raw material charging accuracy, and the introduction of sequencers and computers has led to the production of novolak-type phenolic resins by finely controlling the reaction conditions. However, a method for producing a resin having a constant quality has not yet been developed.
