Abstract
The gelation of a 75% epoxy diacrylate (EA) and 25% tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA) mixture (P-3038) was performed using 2-(N-methyl-N-phenyl)acetonaphthone (MPA) and morpholino acetonaphthone (MPM) as Type I photoinitiators at different light intensities by using a photo-differential scanning calorimetric (Photo-DSC) technique. Identical temperature values and initiator concentrations were used for the photopolymerization reactions. The results show that maximum rate of polymerization (Rpmax) and final conversion values present good correlation at different light intensities.
