Abstract
A method for bonding together two substrates that includes applying to a first substrate an adhesive composition that includes (a) a trifunctional olefinic first monomer, (b) an olefinic second monomer that is copolymerizable with the first monomer and (c) a free radical initiator and then contacting a second substrate to the composition-applied first substrate so that the first and second substrate adhesively bond together. There is also provided a method for providing a coating on a substrate that includes applying to the substrate a composition that includes (a) a trifunctional olefinic first monomer, (b) an olefinic second monomer that is copolymerizable with the first monomer and (c) a free radical initiator and then allowing the composition to cure. Preferably, the adhesive or coating composition includes (a) a free radical polymerizable monomer component that includes a trifunctional olefinic first monomer and an olefinic second monomer that is copolymerizable with the first monomer and (b) a redox initiator system, wherein the adhesive composition is a liquid at room temperature and is curable at room temperature.
