Popis: Three different unsaturated polyester resins were modified by toluene diisocyanate (TDI). All the resins studied were commercially available. One, 2, and 3% additions of TDI caused important changes of the resins properties. With an increase of TDI concentration gelation times increased. Suppression of the exotherm peaks—desired effect from practical point of view—was observed. Unfortunately, increase of TDI concentration caused enormous increase of the resins viscosity. Additionally the resins with 3% of TDI exhibit thixotropic properties. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 79: 1201–1206, 2001
