IN THE PROCESS OF POLYMERIZING A RELATIVELY LARGE BODY OF A COMPLETELY POLYMERIZABLE LIQUID COMPOSITION COMPOSED OF A SOLUTION OF AN UNSATURATED POLYESTER OF AT LEAST ONE DICARBOXYLIC ACID AND A LIQUID POLYMERIZABLE MONOMER HAVING THE GROUP H2C=C<, INTO A HOMOGENEOUS SOLID, THE STEPS OF COMPRISING DISSOLVING A PEROXIDE CATALYST IN THE COMPOSITION, THE PEROXIDE CATALYST BEING THE ONLY CATALYST FOR THE REACTION, PLACING THE CATALYZED COMPOSITION IN AN OPEN CONTAINER OF AN INERT, NON-REACTIVE MATERIAL, THE CONTAINER BEING OF CIRCULAR CROSS-SECTION, COVERING THE COMPOSITION IN THE CONTAINER WITH A LAYER OF 1,5PENTANEDIOL TO SEAL THE COMPOSITION AGAINST THE ENTRY OF ATMOSPHERIC GASES AND MOISTURE, REDUCING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE COMPOSITION TO BETWEEN 5* C. AND 18* C. IN THE ABSENCE OF PHOTOCATALYTIC LIGHT, THE TEMPERATURE BEING RELATED TO THE INTERNAL DIAMETER OF THE CONTAINER BY THE EMPIRICAL EQUATION
