Abstract

A free radical curable composition that includes a free radical curable and a vinyl aromatic compound that is chemically different than the free radical curable component, wherein the vinyl aromatic compound is present in an amount sufficient to decelerate the cure rate of the free radical composition without adversely effecting completion of cure and the properties of the curable composition after it has cured. The composition is particularly useful as a two part adhesive that includes a free radical catalyst system and a diene elastomer.
