Vi. Binyukov et al., PHOTOISOMERIZATION QUANTUM YIELDS OF NAPHTHACENEQUINONES EMBEDDED INTO POLYMERIC MATRICES, JPN J A P 1, 37(4B), 1998, pp. 2118-2119
The differential photoisomerization quantum yield (QY) behavior of fou
r derivatives of naphthacenequinone in toluene solution and in polymet
hyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl butirale (PVB) and polybutyl methac
rylate (PBM-5) polymer films during direct and reverse reactions has b
een investigated. It was discovered that in ail cases the initial QY i
n polymer matrices is higher than the QY in toluene solution.
