Abstract
Abstract Radio-hardenable acrylic polyesters of the general formula: [A][B-C-Dm]2 (I) wherein A is the radical of a linear polyester of the general formula: -O-[R1-R2]xR1-O-(II) wherein R1 is a radical derived from at least one dihydroxylated compound, R2 a radical derived from at least one dicarboxylic acid and x an integer from 1 to 20; wherein B has the same meaning as R2, C is a radical derived from at least one aliphatic polyhydroxylated compound, D a radical derived from acrylic acid and m is an integer from 2 to 7. Manufacture of said polyesters and use as binders in radio-hardenable compositions.
