Project duration:

Start day: 2013

End day: 2018

Short disctoption of the project:

This project's main objective was synthesising bimolecular cationic photoinitiators and investigating mechanistic aspects of the photogeneration of strong protic acids (PAGs). A novel approach to the subject was focused on determining the influence of kinetic and thermodynamic factors of the electron transfer or energy transfer process on the rate of photoinitiation of cationic polymerisations and the determination of mechanisms of action of the systems studied.
