Abstract

Abstract A photocurable resin composition comprising (I) an unsaturated polyester resin obtained by reacting (B) an epoxy compound containing at least about 2 epoxy groups per molecule obtained by reacting metylidene diphenol with beta -methylepichlorohydrin or epichlorohydrin, with (C) an unsaturated monobasic acid in the presence or absence of (A) a dicarboxylic acid containing at least 4 methylene groups interposed between the two carboxyl groups, or a carboxyl-terminated oligopolyester obtained by esterifying a saturated or unsaturated dibasic acid with a polyhydric alcohol, (II) a polymerizable vinyl monomer capable of addition polymerization with the unsaturated polyester resin (I), and (III) a photopolymerization initiator having an action of promoting radical polymerization by the irradiation of light.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
A photocurable resin composition comprising (I) an unsaturated polyester resin obtained by reacting (B) an epoxy compound containing at least about 2 epoxy groups per molecule obtained by reacting methylidene diphenol with β-methylepichlorohydrin or epichlorohydrin, with (C) an unsaturated monobasic acid in the presence or absence of (A) a dicarboxylic acid containing at least 4 methylene groups interposed between the two carboxyl groups, or a carboxyl-terminated oligopolyester obtained by esterifying a saturated or unsaturated dibasic acid with a polyhydric alcohol, (II) a polymerizable vinyl monomer capable of addition polymerization with the unsaturated polyester resin (I), and (III) a photopolymerization initiator having an action of promoting radical polymerization by the irradiation of light.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
A photocurable resin composition comprising (I) an unsaturated polyester resin obtained by reacting (B) an epoxy compound containing at least about 2 epoxy groups per molecule obtained by reacting methylidene diphenol with β-methylepichlorohydrin or epichlorohydrin, with (C) an unsaturated monobasic acid in the presence or absence of (A) a dicarboxylic acid containing at least 4 methylene groups interposed between the two carboxyl groups, or a carboxyl-terminated oligopolyester obtained by esterifying a saturated or unsaturated dibasic acid with a polyhydric alcohol, (II) a polymerizable vinyl monomer capable of addition polymerization with the unsaturated polyester resin (I), and (III) a photopolymerization initiator having an action of promoting radical polymerization by the irradiation of light.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the dicarboxylic acid (A) contains 4 to 200 methylene groups interposed between the two carboxyl groups.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the oligopolyester (A) has a number average molecular weight of 300 to 3,000.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the epoxy compound (B) has an epoxy equivalent of 170 to 190 and a viscosity at 25° C of 2,500 to 4,000.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the unsaturated monobasic acid (C) is acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, cinnamic acid, crotonic acid, or a reaction product of maleic acid with a monohydric alcohol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the unsaturated polyester (I) has a number average molecular weight of 450 to 3,000.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 63 words
The composition of claim 1 which comprises 90 to 30% by weight of the unsaturated polyester resin (I) and 10 to 70% by weight of the polymerizable vinyl monomer (II), both being based on the total weight of (I) and (II), and 1 to 20 parts by weight, based on the entire composition (I + II + III), of the photopolymerization initiator (III).
