Photochemical synthesis of polyacrylate–silica hybrid sol–gel materials catalyzed by photoacids

摘要: Often, the link between two research fields leads to ex- pected or unexpected development of new techniques in scientists' bag tricks. During past decades, pho- toacids, which generate protons with high quantum yields upon irradiation, have found wide application as photoini- tiators cationic polymerization."I The most commonly used photoacids include diaryliodoniumr2. and triarylsul- foniumL2.
