Fiber reinforced molding compounds wherein the resinous matrix is a thermosetting linear polymer characterized in constituting two oligomeric ethylenically unsaturated polyester segments joined through a polyurethane residue and having acryloyl or methacryloyl end groups.

Thermosetting molding compounds

A thermosetting resinous composition characterized in constituting at least two oligomeric polyester segments terminally joined through a polyurethane residue and having end groups containing polymerizable unsaturation. Further disclosed are the thermoset products obtained by the addition polymerization of the aforesaid compositions in the presence or absence of a copolymerizable monomeric crosslinking agent. The resultant thermoset products are particularly useful in preparing molded articles.
