               The claimed invention is directed toward a specified                   
          polyester polyol composition.  Claim 1 is illustrative:                     
               1.  A polyester polyol having a hydroxyl number of 60 to               
          400, which is the esterification product of                                 
               a) an alcohol component comprising                                     
                    a1) one or more aliphatic or cycloaliphatic                       
               alcohols having at least 3 hydroxyl groups and 3 to                    
               8 carbon atoms,                                                        
                    a2) optionally one or more aliphatic or                           
               cycloaliphatic alcohols having 2 hydroxyl groups and 2 to              
               18 carbon atoms and                                                    
                    a3) optionally one or more aliphatic or                           
               cycloaliphatic, saturated or unsaturated alcohols having               
               one hydroxyl group and 1 to 18 carbon atoms,                           
          with                                                                        
               b) a carboxylic acid component comprising                              
                    b1) itaconic acid, maleic acid, their anhydrides                  
               and/or fumaric acid,                                                   
                    b2) optionally one or more aliphatic or                           
               cycloaliphatic, saturated or unsaturated                               
               dicarboxylic acids having at least 2 carbon atoms                      
               and/or their anhydrides other than those set forth                     
               under b1) and                                                          
                    b3) optionally one or more aliphatic or                           
               cycloaliphatic, saturated or unsaturated                               
               monocarboxylic acids having 1 to 18 carbon atoms                       
               and/or their anhydrides,                                               
          provided that component a3) is used in an amount of at least                
          10 mole%, based on the total moles of component a), or                      
          component b3) is used in an amount of at least 10 mole %,                   
          based on the total moles of component b).
