Abstract: | X-ray diffraction analysis of pyrocatechol and hydroquinone dimethacrylates (T m = 18 and 86–88°C, respectively) shows that the oligomer molecules within crystals are packed in stacks where the methacrylate fragments of neighboring molecules are parallel to each other. The minimum distances between the centers of double bonds of adjacent methacrylate fragments in crystals of pyrocatechol and hydroquinone dimethacrylates are 4.621(3) and 4.269(4) Å. The curves showing the reduced rate of photopolymerization of oligomer melts versus conversion (9,10-phenanthrenequinone used as the initiator) display a maximum at conversions of 1.5–3.0%. The limiting conversion in photopolymerization of molten pyrocatechol dimethacrylate at 25 and 40°C is 20%; for hydroquinone dimethacrylate at 95°C, it is approximately 10%. As the temperature rises from 25 to 40°C, the maximum reduced rate of photopolymerization of pyrocatechol dimethacrylate increases by a factor of 1.4. |
