Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a polybutadiene containing resin system which is curable at room temperature by the addition of copper ethylacetoacetate. The resin system consists of about 5 to about 25% polybutadiene, about 55 to about 90% dicyclopentadiene acrylate, about 5 to about 20% of a monomer having 2 to 4 unsaturated groups selected from vinylic, acrylic, and mixtures thereof, about 0.25 to about 3% free radical initiator, and about 0.1 to about 0.8% of a coaccelerator. Also disclosed is a method of curing a resin system and various products made therewith.
