Abstract: Phenolic resin was toughened by polyvinyl butyral (PVB), core-shell rubber, nithile rubber and epoxy resin in this paper. The influence of different toughening agent systems and addition amounts of toughening agents on the toughening effect of phenolic resin was studied by evaluating the impact resistance performance of composite test panels. The curing kinetics of the toughened modified phenolic resin was studied by rheology, DSC testing combined with non-isothermal kinetics. The cross-section morphology of the test plate after impact was observed by SEM, and the toughening mechanism was explained. The results show that the toughness effect of modified phenolic resin modified with PVB as a toughening agent is the most significant, and the addition of PVB will not affect the curing kinetics of the phenolic resin system. When the amount of PVB added is 15%, the impact resistance of the modified phenolic resin composite test board reaches the maximum value of 23.72 J. According to SEM analysis, the PVB added in the toughened modified phenolic resin makes the resin matrix exhibit better ductile fracture when impacted by an external force.
