This disclosure relates generally to adhesive compositions and more particularly to specific combinations of different silane modified polymers (SMP) for use in curable adhesive compositions.

The invention relates to a method for producing a polymer comprising the following steps: (A) depositing a radically cross-linkable resin, obtaining a radically cross-linked resin; and (B) treating the radically cross-linked resin under conditions which are sufficient to trigger a chemical reaction that is different from the radical cross-linking in the radically cross-linked resin. The radically cross-linkable resin comprises a curable component, in which there are NCO groups, olefinic CC double bonds and epoxide groups, and the chemical reaction in the radically cross-linked resin that is different from the radical cross-linking is the reaction of NCO groups and epoxide groups to form oxazolidinone groups.

A joint sealing compound for the in-situ production of connection joints in wet areas. The joint sealing compound is based on acrylates. The joint sealing compound is either light-curable only with a light which is outside of the UV range, or the joint sealing compound is curable via a dual-curing process wherein the joint sealing compound is moisture-curing with a light which is outside of the UV range.

Provided herein are systems and methods for forming a polymeric object. The systems and methods can use monomers having a first type of functional group that is capable of polymerizing upon exposure to radiation and a second type of functional group that is capable of polymerizing at a second condition. The monomers can be polymerized such that the polymeric object has a first and a second network of linkages.
