Abstract of the Disclosure Actinic radiation curable compositions comprise chemically bonded portions of at lest one free radical polymerizable hydroxyalkyl enter of an alpha, beta unsaturated carboxylic acid and a halogenated free radical initiator which is activatable by actinic radiation; and, optionally, one or more non-chemically bonded, copolymeriz-able ethylenically unsaturated compounds. Upon exposure to actinic radiation, said compositions are cured with very little or no inhibition by atmospheric oxygen. |
