1 1 1 Fiberglass resinsThe vast majority of fiberglass boats in use today are built
with polyester resin. Modern unsaturated polyesters used in boat construction are
made up of three basic components: glycol, organic acid and reactive diluents
(usually styrene). If you were to look at uncured polyester resin at a molecular level,
you would see what appear to be thousands of chains made up of alternating glycol
and acid units.
