TOUGHENED VINYL ESTER RESINS

Page/Page column 59, (2010/02/13)
A vinyl ester resin is derived from the reaction of an unsaturated acid with an epoxy terminated polymer made from a dithio or a trithio initiator, and optionally from an epoxy resin. The vinyl ester resin can be blended with a miscible toughener and a diluent to provide a time stable system and subsequently crosslink to provide a composition with improved toughening properties.

Dithiocarbonate derivatives are disclosed, along with a process for preparing the same. The dithiocarbonate compounds can be utilized as initators, chain transfer agents and/or terminators in controlled free radical polymerizations. The dithiocarbonates can be used to produce polymers having narrow molecular weight distribution. Advantageously, the compounds of the present invention can also introduce functional groups into the resulting polymers. The dithiocarbonate compounds have low odor and are substantially colorless.
