Thin solid layers of halophenol and cresol novolacs were investigated
by UV derivative spectroscopy. Structural differences can be identifie
d. Derivative spectroscopy was useful for the analysis of the OH stret
ching region of cresol novolac/PMMA blends. Three sub-bands were discu
ssed and a high amount of intramolecular H-bonding for p-cresol novola
c was deduced.
