Abstract
Curable unsaturated polyester resin compositions from which molded products with superior surface smoothness can be obtained include a block copolymer of a specified form, an unsaturated polyester, a vinyl monomer, a filler, a curing catalyst and a reinforcing fiber. The block copolymer is of the form A--(B).sub.n where A is non-hydrogenated polyisoprene block having viscosity average molecular weight of 10000 or more, B is saturated polyester block obtainable by condensation of organic dicarboxylic anhydride and 1,2-epoxide, more than 50 mol % of terminal groups of the polyester block being carboxylic acid group, A and B are connected by ester linkage and n is not less than 2. Block copolymers of this type can be formed by starting with carboxylic acid or hydroxyl group in polyisoprene and by alternate condensation of organic dicarboxylic anhydride and 1,2-epoxide.
