Zusammenfassung:A composition that is useful in the preparation of radiation curable coatings is provided. The composition comprises the reaction product of an epoxy component comprised of a diepoxide and an acid component comprised of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or reactive derivative thereof, reacted in the presence of a polyamide based on a polymerized fatty acid. The polyamide preferably has a number average molecular weight of less than about 10,000 g/mole. Also provided is a polymerizable composition comprised of the reaction product and a reactive diluent. A method of coating a substrate is also provided which comprises applying to a substrate a composition comprised of the reaction product and exposing said composition to radiation to cure said composition.
