The validity of the time-intensity superposition principle for the photoinitiated polymerization of nanocomposites based on a monofunctional fluorinated acrylate and on a multifunctional hyperbranched polyether acrylate was investigated in this work. Maste ...
The photo-curing behavior of composites containing nanosized SiO2 in an acrylated hyperbranched polymer matrix was investigated by means of photo differential scanning calorimetry. The chemical conversion data were analyzed using an autocatalytic model, pa ...
Nanocomposite materials based on a HBP and silica are produced using either a dual-cure sol/gel and photopolymerization process or by mixing silica nanoparticles with the HBP. In both cases the conversion of the HBP is independent of composition and obeys ...
The present invention concerns a dual cure composition comprising a radiation curable polymer precursor, solid particles, an organometallic precursor and a coupling agent, a hybrid organic/inorganic nanocomposite material produced using said dual cure comp ...
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the process-structure-property relationships of UV-curable hyperbranched polymer (HBP)/silica nanocomposites. Special attention was paid to the interplay between photo-conversion, rheological behavior, shrinkage, a ...
