Use of DSC in degree of conversion of dimethacrylate polymers: easier and faster than MIR technique

Abstract: This work aims to determine the degree of conversion of polymers obtained using diurethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) monomer by two different techniques: differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (MIR). The measurements were made in triplicate on both equipment, which resulted in average values for MIR 79.52 ± 3.57% (camphorquinone photoinitiator) and 78.15 ± 1.86% (fluorescein photoinitiator) and for DSC 80.85 ± 1.06 and 78.27 ± 1.71%. The DSC technique showed higher accu… Show more

“…∆H of the fabric changed from 60.36 J/g to 56.80 J/g after oligomer extraction. Since ∆H 0 (the melting enthalpy of crystalline polyester) was 140 J/g [27], the crystallinity of the fabric could be changed from 43.11% to 40.57% [28]. This may also have been due to the removal of oligomers from the amorphous region, which affects the overall melting process [29].…”
