Heating of the system during cure causes the reactive liquid polymer additive to miscibilize with the vinyl ester base resin. The vinyl ester resin modified in the manner described above shows a significant enhancement in toughness as measured by fracture energy over unmodified counterparts or counterparts modified by known methods of adduction or admixing alone.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1991Date of Patent: March 30, 1993Assignee: The B. F. Goodrich CompanyInventors: Alan R. Siebert, C. Dale Guiley

Patent number: 5191039Abstract: The fluorine-containing epoxy(meth)acrylate resin of the invention is represented by the following general formula (I). ##STR1## wherein R.sub.f is selected from the group consisting of --.phi.--C(CF.sub.3).sub.2 --.phi.-- (where .phi. stands for ##STR2## --C(CF.sub.3).sub.2 --.phi.'--C(CF.sub.3).sub.2 -- (where .phi.' stands for ##STR3## and --CH.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.6 CH.sub.2 --; n is zero or a positive integer; and X is hydrogen or methyl group. The resin of the invention may be prepared by reacting a diglycidyl ether of a fluorine-containing hydrocarbon (R.sub.f) with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. Further provided is an adhesive composition comprising the aforementioned fluorine-containing epoxy(meth)acrylate resin and a photo polymerization initiator, which can be cured at room temperature within a short time by irradiation with an UV ray to form a cured product having a refractive index n.sub.D.sup.20 ranging from 1.434 to 1.532.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1991Date of Patent: March 2, 1993Assignee: Nippon Telegraph and Telephone CorporationInventors: Tohru Maruno, Shigeki Ishibashi, Kouzaburou Nakamura
