- Abstract
A dual-cure latex is prepared by mixing an amide-functionalized latex with a latex that has both acetoacetoxy and unsaturated acrylic functionalities. The amide-functionalized latex provides a thermal cure with the acetoacetoxy groups of the other latex via Michael addition. The partially polymerized triacrylates in the acrylate-functionalized latex provide active sites for photocuring. Thermoset latex films are prepared by blending amide- and acrylate-functionalized latexes in varying amounts. The effect of the photosensitizer (camphorquinone) concentration on thermal and mechanical properties is studied. The highest tensile modulus and elongation is observed in a 50:50 wt% amide/acrylate-functionalized latex blend.
