Photopolymerization of 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl-3′,4′-epoxycyclohexane carboxylate and tri (ethylene glycol) methyl vinyl ether

Photopolymerizations of 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl-3′,4′-epoxycyclohexane carboxylate (ECH) and triethyleneglycol methyl vinyl ether (TEGMVE) and their mixtures catalyzed with diaryliodonium hexafluoroantimonate (IA) were studied. Rates of polymerizations for mixtures of monomers are different from those for both homopolymerizations. The photocured mixtures showed a single not dual glass transition temperature over all composition ratios. During …
