Ci. Simionescu et al., PHOTOCHEMICAL POLYMERIZATION OF METHACRYLIC-ACID IN THE PRESENCE OF POLY(N-ACETYLIMINOETHYLENE) MACROINITIATORS, European Polymer Journal, 33(8), 1997, pp. 1251-1254
The photochemical polymerization of methacrylic acid in dilute aqueous
solution in the presence of poly(N-acetyliminoethylene) macroazoiniti
ators was investigated. The reaction development is the result of the
superposition of two different template processes. The effect of some
factors, such as initiation mode (photolysis or thermolysis), matrix d
imension, monomer, and overall concentration on polymerization feature
s was evidenced. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
