The invention concerns a thermosetting polyester resin capable of forming an anisotropic molten phase comprising a repeating unit of the formula: A-X-B alone, or a combination of the repeating unit of the formula: A-X-B and the repeating unit of the formula: R, adjoining two repeating units being connected each other through an ester bond, in which A represents a mesogenic group defined in the specification, B is a spacer group defined in the specification, X is an ester bond, and R represents a bivalent to hexavalent aliphatic, aromatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon residue, the end bondings of the connected repeating units being occupied by OH, COOH or their reactive derivatives and the sum of the resinous acid value and the OH value being 10 to 200. The invention also provides a powder coating resinous composition containing the abovesaid resin.

Thermosetting polyester resin and powder coating resinous composition

A process for preparing a polymerizable compound of the formula: ##STR1## or a polymerizable compound of the formula: ##STR2## is provided. These formed compounds are useful for the preparation of an acrylic resin which is low in viscosity and capable of forming a coating with excellent flexibility, weather resistance and water resistance.

Process for preparing a polymerizable compound having both polymerizable

This invention discloses a curing resin composition comprising (a) an organic resin containing no less than 2 alkenyl groups per molecule, and having a number average molecular weight of 500-100,000. (b) an organohydrogen-polysiloxane containing no less than 2 Si--H bonds per molecule, and (c) a platinum catalyst. It is desired that the organic resin of component (a) is at least one type chosen from acrylic, polyester and epoxy. The preferable amount of component (b) is such that there are 0.8-4 hydrogen atoms bonded to silicon atoms per alkenyl group of component (a).

Benzyl pyridinium or ammonium salts of a non-nucleophilic anion are useful as a cationic polymerization initiator having a heat latency. A variety of resinous compositions containing this initiator is also disclosed.

Heat-latent, cationic polymerization initiator and resin compositions

Benzylpyridinium or benzylammonium salts of a benzenesulfonate anion are useful as a proton-donating curing catalyst ion a resinous system capable of curing in the presence of such a catalyst. The catalyst is characterized by its heat-latent nature and thus does not impair the storage stability of the resinous system at an ambient temperature.

Heat-latent curing catalyst and resin compositions containing the same

A polymerizable vinyl monomer represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or methyl group and n is a real number of 3 to 100, and preparation thereof. The vinyl monomer is useful for the preparation of vinyl resin which is highly reactive in crosslinking with a hardener and capable of resulting in a coating of resilient, tough and flexible nature.
