Abstract

Abstract A diallyl terephthalate prepolymer is here disclosed which essentially has the following structure CH.sub.2 ═CHCH.sub.2 O(COArCOOBO).sub.n COArCOOCH.sub.2 CH═CH.sub.2 wherein B is a divalent organic residue derived from a diol having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, Ar is a 1,4-phenylene group, and n is a value of 1 to 100, and having an unsaturation in a range of 20 to 100, as represented by an iodine value determine by the Wijs method, and there is also disclosed a method for preparing the diallyl terephthalate prepolymer. The method of the present invention permits obtaining the allyl prepolymer having excellent physical properties from inexpensive raw materials with less labor. Since this prepolymer has a double bond suitably, it can be mixed with unsaturated polyester resin or diallyl phthalate resin, when used. Moreover, the prepolymer can be also used as a crosslinking agent for EPR, elaslene, synthetic rubber and the like.
