The spectra provide information not only on the structure, properties, and concentration of radicals but also information on the initiating and propagating ( oligomeric and polymeric ) radicals in radical polymerizations. A combination of ESR and atom transfer radical polymerization ( ATRP ) provided signi fi cant new information on the properties of radicals in radical polymerization, e.g. dependency of chain length, dynamics, and reactivity ( hydrogen transfer ) of propagating radicals. Up to now, it has been extremely di ffi cult, even impossible, to obtain such information from ESR spectra during conventional radical polymerization. To overcome this di ffi culty radical precursors of oligo - and poly ( meth ) acrylates were prepared by ATRP and puri fi ed.

We examined how the adhesive strength was a ff ected by the ink characteristics, as di ff erent type mono - functional monomers were used in the ink composition. The fl exibility of the cured fi lm structure seems to be crucial for improving adhesive strength, because a fl exible structure can relax the internal strain that exist between the substrate and the cured fi lm surface. It seem that when we use methacrylate type mono - functional monomers ( CHMA, HEMA ) in the ink composition, the two monomers play an important role in the ink system in order to reduce the crosslinking density of the cured fi lm. Also, we understood that acrylate type mono - functional monomers ( CHA, HBA ) were e ff ective to increase adhesive strength because of their low surface tension and less shrinkage, although the two inks containing each monomers formed relatively higher crosslinking density of cured fi lms than the methacrylate type ones.","PeriodicalId":17878,"journal":{"name":"Kobunshi Ronbunshu","volume":"132 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77556408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
