Acrylic polyols are provided which are prepared from a -comonomer mixture which contains a hydroxy-functional acrylate monomer, e.g. 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and an ethylenically unsaturated compound having an electron donating group, e.g. styrene, which have a low residual monomer content and a narrow molecular weight distribution. Also provided is a method of preparing such acrylic polyols, methods of preparing polyurethane coatings from such acrylic polyols and the coatings produced thereby. |
