Polyurethane acrylate resins cured by two different ways, a thermal way and
a photochemical way, are investigated by means of differential scanning ca
lorimetry (DSC) and thermally stimulated depolarization currents (TSDC). Ev
en if both curing methods lead to the same material from a chemical point o
f view, we show that important differences exist between the thermocured re
sin and the photocured resin in terms of molecular relaxation behaviour.
