چکیده

Thiol-ene photopolymers were studied as patternable resins for nanocontact molding imprint lithography. Photopolymerizable thiol and ene monomer mixtures were used, and after molding, patterned thiol-ene polymer features the size and shape of the original molds were replicated. Adhesion and release were examined and controlled by manipulating the surface chemistry of the substrate and mold. A direct correlation between cured thiol-ene polymer modulus and pattern fidelity was observed.

Investigations of thiol-modified phenol derivatives for the use in thiol–ene photopolymerizations

Thiol-ene photopolymerizations gain a growing interest in academic research. Coatings and dental restoratives are interesting applications for thiol-ene photopolymerizations due to their unique features. In most studies the relative flexible and hydrophilic ester derivative, namely pentaerythritoltetra(3-mercaptopropionate) (PETMP), is investigated as the thiol component. Thus, in the present s...

Thiol-Ene-Methacrylates as Dental Restorative Materials

Thiol-ene systems demonstrate numerous advantageous polymerization properties in regards to rapid curing, high conversion, minimal oxygen inhibition, and reduced shrinkage stress. However, one of the drawbacks of thiol-ene systems is that commercially available monomers are not able to achieve the mechanical properties required for use as dental restorative materials. Methacrylate systems on th...

Rapid and simple preparation of thiol-ene emulsion-templated monoliths and their application as enzymatic microreactors.

A novel, rapid and simple method for the preparation of emulsion-templated monoliths in microfluidic channels based on thiol-ene chemistry is presented. The method allows monolith synthesis and anchoring inside thiol-ene microchannels in a single photoinitiated step. Characterization by scanning electron microscopy showed that the methanol-based emulsion templating process resulted in a network...

Phosphane-ene chemistry: the reactivity of air-stable primary phosphines and their compatibility with the thiol-ene reaction.

Air-sensitive and air-stable primary phosphines (RPH2) were compared for their ability to undergo photoinitiated phosphane-ene chemistry with 1-hexene. Despite their increased air-stability, the primary phosphines displayed equal to or greater reactivity when compared to air-sensitive alkyl or aryl analogues. The phosphane-ene reaction was also performed in the presence of 1-octanethiol to dete...
