The photocrosslinking efficiency of a series of commercial photoinitia
tors and multicomponent photosensitive systems on uncrosslinked acryli
c matrices has been estimated. Copolymers used for this study are tric
yclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]dec-4-en-8-yl acrylate/ethyl acrylate copolymers of
variable composition (100/0, 40/60, 20/80, 0/100) synthesized in solut
ion by a free-radical process. The irradiations were carried out at la
rge wavelengths (lambda greater than or equal to 310 nm). Systems of b
enzophenone/benzoyl peroxide led to really fast crosslinking kinetics
for 10 min of irradiation.
