Claims
- 1. A condensation product and salts thereof selected from the group consisting of
- (a) condensation product of a substituted phenol sulfonic acid selected from the group consisting of an arylphenol sulfonic acid and an aralkylphenol sulfonic acid with from about 0.5 to about 4 moles of formaldehyde per mole of substituted phenol sulfonic acid, and
- (b) condensation product of (i) a substituted phenol sulfonic acid selected from the group consisting of an arylphenol sulfonic acid and an aralkylphenol sulfonic acid and (ii) an aryl sulfonic acid with from about 0.5 to about 4 moles of formaldehyde per mole of substituted phenol sulfonic acid and aryl sulfonic acid wherein the weight ratio of substituted phenol sulfonic acid to aryl sulfonic acid is from about 0.95:0.05 to about 0.05:0.95.
- 2. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the substituted phenol sulfonic acid has from about 1 to about 8 sulfonic acid groups.
- 3. The condensation product of claim 1 having a substituted phenol of formula ##STR2## wherein R is an aryl radical,
- R.sub.1 is hydrogen or an alkyl radical having from about 1 to about 5 carbon atoms,
- R.sub.2 is hydrogen or an alkyl radical having from about 1 to about 5 carbon atoms,
- n is from 1 to 3, and
- b is from 0 to 1.
- 4. The salt of the condensation product of claim 1 wherein a salt forming cation is selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium, zinc, calcium, barium, magnesium, aluminum, methylamine, monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine and isopropanolamine.
- 5. The potassium salt of the condensation product of claim 1 wherein one mole of aralkylphenol is sulfonated with 3 moles of sulfonating agent to obtain aralkylphenol sulfonic acid and one mole of the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is then condensed with 1.8 moles of formaldehyde.
- 6. The sodium salt of the condensation product of claim 1 wherein one mole of aralkylphenol is sulfonated with 3 moles of sulfonating agent to obtain aralkylphenol sulfonic acid and one mole of the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is then condensed with 1.4 moles of formaldehyde.
- 7. The ammonium salt of the condensation product of claim 1 wherein one mole of aralkylphenol is sulfonated with 3 moles of sulfonating agent to obtain aralkylphenol sulfonic acid and one mole of the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is then condensed with 1.2 moles of formaldehyde.
- 8. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is monobenzylphenol sulfonic acid.
- 9. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is dibenzylphenol sulfonic acid.
- 10. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is tribenzylphenol sulfonic acid.
- 11. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the aralkylphenol sulfonic acid is isopropylidenediphenol sulfonic acid.
- 12. The condensation product of claim 1 wherein the aryl phenol sulfonic acid is phenylphenol sulfonic acid.
