Abstract: A series of all-liquid, non-filled and halogen free fire-retardant thermosetting resins are herein reported. These compositions provide good physical and mechanical performance while providing inherent nonflammability. The resins systems are designed to eliminate exposure to toxic gases such as halogen halides which are commonly produced during combustion. In addition, due their mechanical performance these materials are capable of excellent performance under high pressure and temperature environments such as those seen by battery enclosures during runaway reactions. In general, these compositions showcase novel fire-retardant resins capable of reducing the risks associated with fires and their byproducts without compromising the utility and performance of such.

Abstract: Unsaturated polyester resin compositions with improved weathering characteristics are presented. Further, the manufacture of these unsaturated polyester resin compositions and their potential applications are presented.

Abstract: Styrene-free unsaturated polyester resin compositions are provided which have low volatile organic compounds and hazardous air pollutants emissions when these resin compositions are used in open molding applications. A process for the manufacture of these resin compositions is provided.
