Kinetic Behavior of Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization of Dimethacrylates
Abstract
Abstract Summary: The reaction behavior and kinetics of the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylates (PEGDMA) were studied with respect to polymerization rate, vinyl conversion and the development of a crosslinked network. The polymerization rates were much slower than the corresponding conventional free radical polymerizations with the ATRP systems exhibiting milder autoacceleration. The linear …
