Abstract: An adhesive composition that includes acrylic based monomer and/or methacrylic ester based monomer, an impact modifier; and an elastomer that includes urethane elastomer. The impact modifier includes methacrylate-butadiene-styrene copolymer.

Abstract: A multipurpose process resin formulation which produces superior adhesion on a variety of different substrates including, but not limited to, carbon and aramid fibers. The resin formulation includes a mixture of a thermosetting polyester and or vinyl ester resin; a polymerizable and,or non-polymerizable phosphate ester phosphite ester and/or oligomer; and a curing and or catalyzing agent. The resin formulation can include an alkyl acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer and/or compound.

Abstract: A high strength conduit for carrying potable water at temperatures of up to about 180.degree. F. comprising a first tubular member having a mating end portion formed from polyvinyl chloride, a second tubular member having a mating end portion also formed from polyvinyl chloride, telescopically received in the mating portion of the first tubular member, a cured adhesive composition joining said mating end portions of the first and second tubular members. The cured adhesive composition is formed from a curable composition comprising a minor proportion by weight of a thermoplastic elastomeric copolymer comprising from about 40 to about 97 weight percent of recurring units of a monovinyl aromatic monomer, from about 1 to about 30 weight percent of recurring units of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride, from about 1 to about 30 weight percent of recurring units of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid, and from about 1 to about 40 weight percent of recurring units of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.
