Abstract:
An epoxy-functional resin comprising:(a) 10-90 wt % of recurring units of an epoxy-functional allylic monomer having the general structure: â€ƒin which R is hydrogen, a C1-C10 alkyl, or a C6-C12 aryl group; A is an oxyalkylene group; and n, which is an average number of oxyalkylene groups, is within the range of 0 to about 15; and (b) 10-90 wt % of recurring units of a C2-C10 alkyl acrylate or methacrylate that has a homopolymer Tg (glass transition temperature) less than 0Â° C., wherein the epoxy-functional resin is a liquid at 25Â° C. and has a number average molecular weight less than about 5,000, a weight average molecular weight less than about 10,000, molecular weight distribution less than about 3.5, and viscosity less than about 20,000 cps at 25Â° C.
