Synthesis and properties of unsaturated polyester resins of reduced emission of crosslinking monomers
Maleic anhydride was partially esterified with cyclohexanol, polycondensed with ethylene or 1,2-propylene glycols at 200-220 degrees C and mixed with (CH2=CMeCOOCH2)(2) and/or PhCH=CH2 to decrease (or avoid) the PhCH=CH2, emission during processing the resulting unsatd. polyesters. The cured polymers showed good mech. and thermal properties.
