This invention relates to a process for making phenolic fatty acid compounds having a reduced phenolic ester content. The invention also relates to method for chemically bonding a phenolic resin with a non-phenolic polymer (e.g., a synthetic fabric). The method comprises contacting a phenolic fatty acid compound with a non-phenolic polymer to introduce a hydroxy phenyl functional group into the non-phenolic polymer; and reacting the hydroxy phenyl functional group contained in the non-phenolic polymer with a phenolic resin or a phenolic crosslinker composition capable of forming a phenolic resin, to chemically bond the phenolic resin with the non-phenolic polymer. The invention is particularly useful for making a synthetic fabric-reinforced article, such as synthetic fabric-reinforced rubber article, circuit board substrate, or fiberglass.

To provide a conductive polymer conductor that enables improvement of wash durability and conductivity and a method for manufacturing the same. A conductive polymer conductor has a conductive polymer adhered to a substrate and can be used, for example, as a conductive polymer electrode. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) can be cited as a preferable example of the conductive polymer. The conductive polymer is low-crystalline with low crystallinity and is thereby made capable of being adhered uniformly to the substrate and improving adhesion to the substrate.
