- Abstract:
- Terpolymers bearing terpyridine as well as (meth)acrylates as free radical
curable groups (UV-curing) or hydroxyl groups (thermal curing with bis-isocyanates)
were synthesized and characterized using 1H NMR, IR and UV-vis spectroscopy as well
as GPC. Subsequently, the ability of covalent crosslinking via the UV-initiated polymerization
of the acrylate groups was investigated. Moreover, the thermal covalent
crosslinking via the reaction of hydroxyl functionalized terpolymer and bis-isocyanate
compounds could be successfully achieved.
