Claims
- 1. An acrylic-modified hydroxy-functional polyester diluent obtained from the reaction of
- I. 50 to 100 parts by weight of a hydroxy-functional polyester reactive diluent having a number average molecular weight less than 500 derived from the reaction of from about
- (a) 40 to 60 parts by weight of at least one triol having a molecular weight less than about 200,
- (b) 10 to 30 parts by weight of an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid having the formula: ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 is either hydrogen or an alkyl group of 1 to 3 carbon atoms and R.sub.2 is an aliphatic group of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an aryl group,
- (c) 10 to 30 parts by weight of a saturated monocarboxylic acid having the formula:
- R--COOH
- wherein R is hydrogen or a branched alkyl or straight chain alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and
- (d) 0 to 15 parts by weight of a benzoic acid; with
- II. 1 to 50 parts by weight of at least one acrylic monomer copolymerizable with said hydroxy-functional polyester diluent.
- 2. The acrylic-modified hydroxy-functional polyester diluent of claim 1 further characterized in that at least one of the acrylic monomers comprises a hydroxy-functional acrylic monomer.
