Abstract

A polymerizable composition according to the present invention is characterized by that it comprises a compound (a) having at least one structure represented by the following formula (1): wherein R1 is a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, R2, R3 and R4 each independently represents a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms or a hydrogen atom; X stands for an S or O atom and the average number of S atom is at least 50% based on the total number of S and O atoms which consist of the three membered ring; and X′ is —S— or —O—,at least two compounds (b) having a tertiary amino group substituted with aliphatic and/or aromatic group(s), which are each different in catalytic activity as a polymerization catalyst,with the proviso that the ratio of the total of the tertiary amino groups in the at least two compounds (b) to the episulfide groups in compound (a) is in the range of 0.0001 to 0.02 in terms of a molar ratio of amino/episulfide functional group.
