Photocatalysed (Meth)acrylate Polymerization by (Antimony-Doped) Tin Oxide Nanoparticles and Photoconduction of Their Crosslinked Polymer Nanoparticle Composites

Figure 3

Dependency of the photocatalysed C=C bond conversion on Sb:SnO₂ concentration measured at 1637 cm⁻¹ (13% Sb; MPS/Sb∶SnO₂=0.08 g/g). (a) The change in the (meth)acrylate C=C bond concentration during irradiation. (b) 𝑅_max1637 and 𝑅_ini¹⁶³⁷ determined from the slopes in Figure 3(a) (points; (1)).] The solid lines represent the polymerization rate calculated with (5) using for 𝐾_max1637∶2.20×10⁻⁴ m^3/2 s^−1/2 J^−1/2  and 𝐾_ini¹⁶³⁷=1.44×10⁻⁴ m^3/2s^−1/2J^−1/2.
