Blends of monofunctional and multifunctional (meth)acrylate monomers, optionally in addition to oligomeric multifunctional (meth)acrylates), can be cured by ultraviolet radiation in contact with a photoinitiator to produce optical resinous articles having a glass transition temperature of at least 35null C. and having physical properties making them suitable for use as microstructure-bearing articles.
摘要:
Block copolyestercarbonates substantially free of anhydride linkages linking at least two mers of the polymer chain may be prepared by a method which comprises the steps of: (A) preparing a hydroxy-terminated polyester intermediate in a molten reaction mixture comprising at least one 1,3-dihydroxybenzene moiety and at least one aromatic dicarboxylic acid diarylester under transesterification conditions, said polyester intermediate having a degree of polymerization of at least 4; and (B) conducting a reaction of said polyester intermediate with a carbonate precursor in a two-phase system comprising an aqueous phase and a water-immiscible organic solvent. Articles comprising the copolyestercarbonates are another aspect of the invention.

In one embodiment the present invention is a polycarbonate comprising structural units derived from at least one dihydric phenol, a carbonate precursor, and at least one member selected from the group consisting of an oxanilide-comprising compound, an oxamate-comprising compound, and mixtures thereof. In another embodiment the present invention is a method for making a polycarbonate comprising structural units derived from at least one dihydric phenol and at least one member selected from the group consisting of an oxanilide-comprising compound, an oxamate-comprising compound, and mixtures thereof, which comprises the step of contacting under reactive conditions at least one dihydric phenol, a carbonate precursor, and at least one member selected from the group consisting of an oxanilide-comprising compound, an oxamate-comprising compound, and mixtures thereof. In still another embodiment the present invention is an article comprising a polycarbonate comprising oxanilide structural units. In still another embodiment the present invention is a method for making a symmetrical or unsymmetrical oxanilide-comprising dihydric phenol which comprises the step of contacting at least one aromatic amine bearing a hydroxy group with a diaryl oxalate or a dialkyl oxalate bearing alkyl groups each substituted with at least one electron-withdrawing group. In still another embodiment the present invention is a method for making an oxamate-comprising monohydric phenol which comprises the step of contacting an aromatic amine bearing a hydroxy group with a diaryl oxalate or a dialkyl oxalate bearing alkyl groups each substituted with at least one electron-withdrawing group.
