Abstract
Abstract Thermosetting resin compositions containing unsaturated polyester resins which have been modified with a dicyclopentadiene. The polyester resins are blended with a mixture of vinyl aromatic monomers and dicyclopentadiene alkenoate. The resin compositions are useful to make fibrous reinforcement laminates. The use of the dicyclopentadiene alkenoate accelerates the rate at which hardness develops during room temperature cure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
82 words
A thermosetting resin composition which comprises (A) about 80 to about 30% by weight of a linear unsaturated polyester containing 10 to 100 mole percent of a dicyclopentadiene concentrate based on the moles of dicarboxylic acid or anhydride contained in said polyester, (B) about 20 to about 70% by weight of an unsaturated monomer mixture of a vinyl aromatic monomer and a dicyclopentadiene alkenoate wherein the range of dicyclopentadiene alkenoate in said mixture ranges from about 5 to about 90 weight percent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
82 words
A thermosetting resin composition which comprises (A) about 80 to about 30% by weight of a linear unsaturated polyester containing 10 to 100 mole percent of a dicyclopentadiene concentrate based on the moles of dicarboxylic acid or anhydride contained in said polyester, (B) about 20 to about 70% by weight of an unsaturated monomer mixture of a vinyl aromatic monomer and a dicyclopentadiene alkenoate wherein the range of dicyclopentadiene alkenoate in said mixture ranges from about 5 to about 90 weight percent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
56 words
The resin composition of claim 1 wherein the unsaturated polyester is prepared by the reaction under resin forming conditions of: (A) a glycol, (B) an olefinically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid or the anhydride thereof or mixtures thereof, and (C) 10 to 100 mole percent of a dicyclopentadiene concentrate based on the moles of dicarboxylic acid or anhydride.
