Abstract: An unsaturated polyester resin composition comprising an unsaturated polyester, an acetoacetate functional monomer; a multifunctional di- or tri-acrylate monomer; and an allyl ether-functional monomer/oligomer, wherein the resin composition is substantially free of styrene.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a reactive functional group-modified molecularly self-assembling material; method of making the reactive functional group-modified molecularly self-assembling material; manufactured article comprising the reactive functional group-modified molecularly self-assembling material; and a method of shaping the reactive functional group-modified molecularly self-assembling material.

Abstract: Golf balls containing at least one layer made from a thermoplastic polyurethane or polyurethane-urea that is the reaction product of a polyisocyanate with moisture-resistant polyol and a curing agent are provided. The moisture-resistant polyol may be prepared by dimerizing unsaturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acid or ester containing 10 to 60 carbon atoms followed by reacting it with a monomeric, oligomeric, or polymeric diol. In one preferred version, the moisture-resistant polyol is a branched polyester polyol containing 36 carbon atoms. The composition can be prepared using prepolymer or one-shot manufacturing techniques. The resulting golf ball has desirable playing performance properties including high resiliency, toughness, impact durability, moisture-resistance, and soft feel.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a moisture-permeable film having superior moisture permeability and flexibility at levels enabling the use thereof in the production of textile products such as clothes, while also not being susceptible to the occurrence of decreases in surface quality caused by roughening.

Abstract: The invention relates to a radiation-curable adhesion-promoting composition comprising modified unsaturated amorphous polyesters and a process for preparing it and also provides for the use thereof in radiation-curable systems.
