Structured illumination as a processing method for controlling photopolymerized coating characteristics

摘要: The most prevalent polymerization methods are those which fall under the category of thermal polymerizations. ease initiation and abundant knowledge present for these long time standards make implementation straightforward. However in some applications, drawbacks may be numerous use light induced polymerizations advantageous. Because distinct advantages obtained using photopolymerizations as opposed to more conventional thermally science continues further applications photopolymers. Structured illumination is one such expansion photopolymer a method by variations intensity set up differential reaction rates evolving migration monomer. can tailored produce cured systems with enhanced properties reduction stress or control gloss. Polymerization shrinkage important many since it leads residual stresses deform system undermine its optical mechanical properties. Also, while photopolymerized coatings generally high gloss, characteristic polymer that have great impact on function appearance. Utilizing simple structured illumination, thereby controlling coating both reductions lead finished product. This contribution looks at not only producing but also characterizes their standard unconventional means, alike. Mathematical modeling shrinkage, monomer this work.
