Abstract
The uncrosslinked liquid oligomeric compositions of this invention are made by the Michael addition reaction of acetoacetate-functional donor compounds with multifunctional acrylate acceptor compounds where the equivalent ratios of multifunctional acrylate to acetoacetate vary from ≧1:1 to ≧13.2:1 depending on the functionality of both multifunctional acrylate and acetoacetate in the presence of a catalyst comprising an epoxy moiety and a quaternary salt. Unusable gelled or cured oligomer products occur below the claimed ranges. The liquid oligomers of this invention are further crosslinked to make coatings, laminates and adhesives.
