Abstract

An unsaturated polyester resin is prepared by heating (a) an alkylene oxide, (b) a mixture of maleic anhydride and another dicarboxylic anhydride, the mixture containing at least 10 mol per cent of maleic anhydride, and (c) 10-50 mol per cent, based on (b) of water or a dihydric or polyhydric alcohol, at a temperature below 180 DEG C. until the acid number is less than 240, then at 180-250 DEG C. until the acid number of the product is less than 60. Suitable alkylene oxides are ethylene, propylene and butylene oxides. The preferred anhydride mixture contains equimolar amounts of maleic and phthalic anhydrides. Other anhydrides suitable for mixing with maleic anhydride in the present invention are those of succinic, glutaric, octenylsuccinic, diglycollic, thiodioglycollic, tetrahydrophthalic, tetrachlorophthalic and other substituted phthalic acids and Diels-Alder adducts of maleic acid with e.g. cyclopentadiene. Suitable polyhydric alcohols are ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, triethylene glycol, 1,3-butane diol, 1,5-pentane diol, 2-butene-1,4-diol 1,2,6-hexane triol, pentaerythritol, sorbitol and mannitol. The polyhydric alcohol may comprise up to 25 mol per cent of a monohydric alcohol. The molar ratio of alkylene oxide to anhydride mixture may be from 0.9-4.0 to 1, ratios greater than 1 to 1 permitting the formation of diglycol or polyglycol units in the polyester chain. In a suitable process the mixture of anhydrides and the water or alcohol is heated to 100-150 DEG C., and the alkylene oxide is added over 1 1/2 -3 hours, the temperature being held at 100-150 DEG C. until the acid number falls below 240, then at 180-250 DEG C. until the acid number falls below 60 and the viscosity is F to I on the Gardner scale. The mixture is then cooled to 160 DEG C. and a stabilizer, e.g. hydroquinone is added. 30-40 wt. per cent (based on the cut resin) of a copolymerizable monomer, e.g. styrene, may be added. In examples an equimolar mixture of maleic and phthalic anhydrides is mixed with water (13, 25.5, 37.5 and 50 mol per cent) or propylene glycol (25 and 37.5 mol per cent) and treated with propylene oxide (105-143 mol per cent), the product being mixed with 30 mol per cent of styrene.
