Abstract

The photoreactivity of new homo- and co-photosensitive polymers containing pendant chalcone moieties attached through hexamethylene spacer lengths between the photosensitive group and the backbone were studied. The rates of crosslinking of the prepared polymers were investigated under different conditions in solutions such as: backbone structures, copolymerization, different solvents, different concentrations and different temperatures. The structures of the prepared monomer and polymers were confirmed by different spectroscopic methods and elemental microanalysis. The average molecular weights of the polymers were determined by gel permeation chromatography. The thermal stability of the polymers was measured by thermogravimetric analysis under a nitrogen atmosphere.
