Abstract A series unsaturated polyesters were made from 2,2‐di‐methyl‐l,3‐propanediol, propylene glycol, fumaric acid, and isophthalic acid by a two‐step fusion process. The effect of catalyst, conversion, composition, unsaturation, and styrene content were studied, and the relationship between composition and properties was established.
