A composition that cures when exposed to actinic radiation. In some embodiments the curable adhesive composition comprises: a) one or more radiation curable oligomers or prepolymers terminally having at least one carbon-carbon double bond-containing group; b) one or more diluent monomer components containing at least one polymerizable group; c) optionally one or more adhesion promoting additives of an organic or inorganic acid acrylic monomer; and optionally one or more rheological modifiers; one or more plasticizers and; one or more additives. The curable composition can be used in an adhesive that structurally bonds many substrates including dissimilar substrates. In some embodiments cured reaction products of the composition have a broad service temperature range from 20 to 120 C. Cured reaction products of this embodiment will exhibit greater than 50% cohesive failure in this temperature range. The cured composition will retain adhesive strength at temperatures above its Tg.

Provided is a two-component adhesive that includes a first composition and a second composition, in which the first composition contains: a complex derived from an organoborane and a first compound having a first group capable of undergoing an addition reaction to an isocyanate group; and as a diluent, a second compound not having a polymerizable group, the second composition containing: a third compound having an isocyanate group and a polymerizable group; and a dehydrating agent. The first composition preferably does not substantially contain a compound having a polymerizable group.
