Abstract
We have shown that efficiency of light absorption is dictated by conditions favouring longest UV exposure times, rather than thinner films on the disc. Initiator decomposition efficiency, an important consideration in the overall rate of the co-polymerisation, is enhanced by lower fluid flowrates. This study highlights the promising technology offered by the SDR in combination with UV irradiation for the exploitation of photo-copolymerisation as a viable method for bulk copolymer synthesis.
