To obtain a phenolic resin molding material capable of being injection molded under a row pressure, having excellent fluidity, heat stability and curability at a high temperature and useful for electric members, etc., by comprising a specific phenolic resin, monohydric aliphatic alcohols, hexamethylene tetramine, etc.
This molding material is composed of (A) 100 pts.wt. of a phenolic resin such as a high ortho-novolak type phenolic resin having 350-500 number average molecular weight and 1.5-2.5 ortho/para bonding ratio, (B) preferably 1-20 pts.wt. of monohydric aliphatic alcohols having ≤5C chain and 80-140°C boiling point such as amino alcohol, (C) preferably 12-20 pts.wt. of hexamethylene tetramine, (D) preferably 0.1-10 pts.wt. of a low-molecular weight polyolefin compound such as PE having 500-1,500 molecular weight and (E) a filler such as wood powder.
