Abstract
Diethyleneglycoldivinylether (DVE2) and triethyleneglycoldivinylether (DVE3 ) were photopolymerised together with monovinylethers and hydroxyalkylvinyl ethers, in order to study the curing reaction and to evaluate the propertie s of the films obtained. In the presence of the monovinylethers, the flexib ility of the cured films increased and the Tg values decreased. In the pres ence of a hydroxyalkylvinyl ether, a stronger plasticisation effect was obt ained and attributed to a chain transfer reaction involving -OH groups.
