Abstract

Thermal properties of the photoluminescent copolymers, naphthalene-2,7-diol dimethacrylate derivatives, are presented in this paper. The materials were synthesized by bulk copolymerization of 2,7-(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloyloxypropoxy)naphthalene (2,7-NAF.DM) with four popular vinyl monomers: 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), butyl acrylate (BA), divinylbenzene (DVB) and styrene (ST). As an initiator, the α,α′-azoiso-bis-butyronitrile was used. Thermal stabilities and degradation behaviors of the obtained copolymers were studied by means of the differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric (TG/DTG, in air and in helium atmosphere) analyses. Gases evolved during the thermal treatment were monitored using the TG-FTIR coupled method. The presented copolymers can have potential application as luminophores, protective coatings or fiber-optical sensors.
