Mechanical Characterization of UV Photopolymerized PMMA with Different Photo-Initiator Concentration

Abstract: Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is one among few known photo-polymeric resin useful in lithography for fabricating structures having better mechanical properties to meet the requirement in electronics and biomedical applications. This study explores the effect of Photo Initiator (PI) concentration and also curing time on strength and hardness of Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) obtained by UV photopolymerization of Methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer. The UV LED light source operating at the wavelength of 364 nm is… Show more

“…A wide variety of monomers (including multifunctional acrylate and methacrylate monomers) have been found to undergo rapid photopolymerization under UV light, with the right amount of photoinitiator [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. However, there are still many problems in the above monomer systems, such as the fact that it is unstable in oxygen, has uneven crosslinking, large internal stress in polymerization, is easy to cause volume shrinkage, and so on [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ].…”
