Abstract
Abstract In a process for manufacturing unsaturated polyester resins which comprises (A) a stage of reacting a dialkyl terephthalate with a polyhydric alcohol in the presence of an interesterification catalyst, (B) a stage of reacting the reaction product obtained at the stage (A) with an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, one or more polyhydric alcohols and optionally a saturated dicarboxylic acid to produce an unsaturated alkyd resin and (C) a stage of dissolving the unsaturated alkyd resin obtained at the stage (B) in a vinyl monomer, the reaction at the stage (A) or (B) is carried out in the coexistence of a hydroquinone and a phosphite.
