A curable composition comprising: a hydroxy-functional or ether-functional (meth)acrylate copolymer, an epoxy resin; water; a photocatalyst, and optionally a polyvinyl acetal polymer and/or a film-forming polymer. When cured, provides structural bonding adhesives that are curable under high humidity conditions.

Cure monitoring systems for and methods of monitoring polymerizable material to determine the degree of curing of the polymerizable material. A monitoring light source delivers visible monitoring light at one or more different visible wavelengths and a visible light detector detects the monitoring light diffusely reflected by the polymerizable material. The monitoring light has a wavelength of maximum emission (&#x3bb;max-mon) that does not effectively induce polymerization of the polymerizable material. Change in intensity of the monitoring light reflected from the polymerizable material is used to determine when a selected degree of curing is reached in the polymerizable material.
