Curable lactone derived resins
First Claim
1. A curable lactone derived resin which is the reaction product of:
- (a) from about 30 percent to about 95 percent by weight of a lactone modified resin of formula ##STR6## wherein X is the organic radical formed by removing at least one hydroxyl hydrogen atom from an ester containing from 1 to 3 acrylyl or alpha-substituted acrylyl groups and one or two hydroxyl groups, R is hydrogen or an alkyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, x is from 4 to 7 and at least (x+2) R'"'"'s are hydrogen, n has an average value of from about 0.2 to about 5, and a is 1 or 2; and
(b) from about 5 percent to about 70 percent by weight of an isocyanate.

Abstract
Curable lactone derived resins are the reaction product of (a) a lactone modified resin of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is the organic radical formed by removing at least one hydroxyl hydrogen atom from an ester containing from 1 to 3 acrylyl or alpha-substituted acrylyl groups and one or two hydroxyl groups, R is hydrogen or an alkyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, x is from 4 to 7 wherein at least (x+ 2) R'"'"'s are hydrogen, n has an average value of from about 0.2 to about 5 and a is 1 or 2; and (b) an isocyanate.
The lactone derived resins are especially useful for floor tile coatings which are UV curable. The coatings are abrasion resistant, yet are flexible.

13. A process of making a UV curable lactone derived resin, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) reacting a (1) lactone of formula ##STR7## wherein R is hydrogen or an alkyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, x is from 4 to 7, and at least (x+2) R'"'"'s are hydrogen with (2) an ester containing from 1 to 3 acrylyl or alpha-substituted acrylyl groups and one or more hydroxyl groups; and (b) reacting from about 30 percent to about 95 percent by weight of the product of step (a) with from about 5 percent to about 70 percent by weight of an isocyanate to form the lactone derived resin. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
