Abstract: Three commercially available phenolic resins are assessed for compatibility with a fibreglass wovenroving reinforcement. Compatibility assessment is based on laminate physical properties f flexuralstrength and modulus in three and four point bending, interlaminar shear strength, and tensilestrength and modulus. The physical properties are also used for assessment of hand laminatedglass/phenolic systems
