Abstract: An electrical component comprising an electrical component having an exterior protective layer on at least a portion of a surface. The layer is a cured copolymer of a reaction between at least one oligomer having a terminal ethylenically unsaturated group and at least one monomer having a terminal ethylenically unsaturated group. Alternatively, the layer is a cured copolymer of a reaction between at least two oligomers having a terminal ethylenically unsaturated group. The copolymerization reaction is preferably in the presence of a free radical initiator curing agent and a transition metal catalyst.
