Provided are an intrinsic flame-retardant resin with a low polarity, and a preparation method therefor and the use thereof. The intrinsic flame-retardant resin with a low polarity has a structure as shown in formula I and is a phenolic compound or resin which is prepared by a three-step reaction of allyl etherification, rearrangement and terminating with a phosphorus-containing group. The resin does not contain polar hydroxyl groups in the molecular formula thereof, and has a stable molecular structure, low polarity and high reactivity, and does not generate polar hydroxyl groups during application and processing, thereby avoiding the influence of secondary hydroxyl groups on the performance of products thereof. While the resin improves the dielectric performance, same still has crosslinkable groups which lead to no significant change in high temperature resistance after curing. Introduction of the phosphorus-containing capping group allows the resin to have intrinsic flame-retardant performance. Using the resin in the preparation of a metal foil clad laminate facilitates reducing the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the metal foil clad laminate, and results in higher high temperature resistance and improved flame retardancy, so that the metal foil clad laminate has a good comprehensive performance and broad application prospects.
