Of. Pozdnyakov et al., Polycyanurate thin film deposition on metals via thermal cyclotrimerisation from the monomer vapor phase, THIN SOL FI, 366(1-2), 2000, pp. 1-3
For the first time, polycyanurate thin films are prepared by thermal deposi
tion from the vapor of the bisphenol A dicyanate. The deposited films are c
haracterized by AFM, infrared reflection spectroscopy and TOF-MS with respe
ct to their morphology, chemical structure and thermal stability. In contra
st to conventional film preparation techniques, the films are quickly produ
ced and they consist of a completely reacted polymer network with improved
thermal stability. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A. All rights r
