Abstract

AbstractFunctional polyvinylethylene glycols (PVEGs) with pendent vinyl groups were synthesized by Pd/B synergistic catalysts and their structures were characterized by 1H NMR and FT‐IR. The photopolymerization of the obtained PVEGs with multifunctional thiols in the presence of a photoinitiator proceeded smoothly via thiol‐ene photo‐click reaction to give a series of crosslinked materials by the variation of the molecular weight of PVEGs and a ratio of thiols and enes. The curing behavior was studied by FT‐IR and the properties of crosslinked materials were characterized by the test of gel content, swelling ratio, and water absorption. The dynamic mechanical analysis, mechanical properties, thermogravimetry, and surface properties of the crosslinked materials were investigated and the performance of coating for the crosslinked film materials was also characterized. The crosslinked film materials can be further functionalized by post‐crosslinking modification through thiol‐ene photo‐click reaction.
