| Abstract: | The effects of allyl ethers in coating resins have been studied in relations to different systems. The details that have been investigated are: the reactions between allyl ethers-styrene-cobalt salt in air, the influence of cobalt salt on oxidized allyl ethers, and the interaction between allyl ethers and maleic esters with respect to copolymerization. The curing rates of allyl functional oligomers as coatings have also been studied. The results are summarized together with the results from a previous article by the same authors to give an overall view of the curing mechanism in allyl ether functional unsaturated polyester resins dissolved in styrene. |
