Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 128 words
A resin composition having low shrink properties which comprises (A) 25 to 45 parts by weight of an unsaturated polyester containing tricyclo(5,2,1,0 2 ,6)dec-4-el-8 or 9-yl groups, alpha, betaunsaturated dibasic acid residues, and glycol residues as structural units, said unsaturated polyester being obtained by reacting, in equimolar amounts, dicyclopentadiene with an alpha, beta-unsaturated dibasic acid or by reacting, in equimolar amounts, dicyclopentadiene with an alpha, beta-unsaturated dibasic acid anhydride and water at 150° C. or lower to yield a partially esterified dicyclopentadienecarboxylic acid, which is further reacted with at least one polyhydric alcohol. (B) to 40 to 60 parts by weight of one or more polymerizable monomoers having one or more polymerizable double bonds in the molecule, and (C) 4.5 to 15 parts by weight of a polystyrene.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 128 words
A resin composition having low shrink properties which comprises (A) 25 to 45 parts by weight of an unsaturated polyester containing tricyclo(5,2,1,0 2 ,6)dec-4-el-8 or 9-yl groups, alpha, betaunsaturated dibasic acid residues, and glycol residues as structural units, said unsaturated polyester being obtained by reacting, in equimolar amounts, dicyclopentadiene with an alpha, beta-unsaturated dibasic acid or by reacting, in equimolar amounts, dicyclopentadiene with an alpha, beta-unsaturated dibasic acid anhydride and water at 150° C. or lower to yield a partially esterified dicyclopentadienecarboxylic acid, which is further reacted with at least one polyhydric alcohol. (B) to 40 to 60 parts by weight of one or more polymerizable monomoers having one or more polymerizable double bonds in the molecule, and (C) 4.5 to 15 parts by weight of a polystyrene.
