Abstract
Abstract Failure of free radical catalyzed unsaturated polyester laminating compositions containing wax for suppression of styrene evaporation, but not more than about 10 weight percent of non-reinforcing filler, to develop interlaminar adhesion as great as similar compositions without wax can be at least partially overcome by incorporating at least about 0.1 weight percent of a tertiary monoamine having a single aromatic group and two alkyl or hydroxyalkyl groups on the amino nitrogen.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
118 words
In a laminating composition comprising (i) an ethylenically unsaturated polyester polymer, (ii) an ethylenically unsaturated curing agent comprising styrene, (iii) a free radical catalyst for the cure reaction of said polyester polymer and said curing agent and (iv) paraffin wax, the improvement for enhancing interlaminar adhesion in cured laminates prepared therefrom which comprises said composition (v) further comprising at least about 0.1 percent by weight of a tertiary monoamine having a single aromatic group and two alkyl or hydroxy alkyl groups joined to the amino nitrogen atom thereof and (vi) containing no more than about 10 percent by weight of non-reinforcing filler, where both percentages are based on the total weight of said polymer and said curing agent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
118 words
In a laminating composition comprising (i) an ethylenically unsaturated polyester polymer, (ii) an ethylenically unsaturated curing agent comprising styrene, (iii) a free radical catalyst for the cure reaction of said polyester polymer and said curing agent and (iv) paraffin wax, the improvement for enhancing interlaminar adhesion in cured laminates prepared therefrom which comprises said composition (v) further comprising at least about 0.1 percent by weight of a tertiary monoamine having a single aromatic group and two alkyl or hydroxy alkyl groups joined to the amino nitrogen atom thereof and (vi) containing no more than about 10 percent by weight of non-reinforcing filler, where both percentages are based on the total weight of said polymer and said curing agent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
12 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein said aromatic group is phenyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
14 words
A composition according to claim 2 wherein said amine is N,N-dimethylaniline, N,N-diethylaniline or N-methyl-N-ethylaniline.
