Abstract:
The invention relates to novel cinnamamides, a process for their manufacture and their use as UV absorbers. The cinnamamides of the invention may be used as UV absorbers in a variety of engineered resins such as polyamides (especially nylon 6 and 6,6), polycarbonates, polyacetals, polysulfones, polyimides, polyaryletherketones, and polyesters, (especially PET and PBT), as well as, other polymers such as polyvinylchloride and polyolefins (polyethylenes and polypropylenes).
Abstract:
The invention provides improved high contrast, photopolymerizable compositions suitable for producing high contrast waveguides. The high contrast, photopolymerizable compositions of this invention include a nitrone compound component. The photosensitive composition is an admixture of a free radical polymerizable acrylate or methacrylate component having at least two ethylenically unsaturated groups, a photoinitiator, and a nitrone compound.

Abstract:
Homopolymers and copolymers with an acrylic backbone chain having pendant side-chains containing a nitrone functional group undergo change in refractive index upon exposure to actinic radiation. Waveguides are 'written' in films containing such polymers by exposing predetermined areas to sufficient actinic radiation to change the refractive index.

Abstract:
Des homopolymères et des copolymères à chaîne de squelette acrylique ayant des chaînes latérales libres contenant un groupe fonctionnel nitrone subissent un changement d'indice de réfraction lors d'une exposition à un rayonnement actinique. Des guides d'ondes sont tracés dans des couches minces contenant lesdits polymères par exposition de zones prédéterminées à un rayonnement actinique suffisant pour changer l'indice de réfraction.
