Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The photopolymerization of butyl methacrylate in isopropanol with participation of nanoparticles of wide-gap semiconductor ZnO has been studied. The possibility of sensitizing ZnO nanoparticles to visible light with a series of halogenated fluoresceins has been established. The rate of photoinitiation of polymerization in the systems studied is principally determined by the rate of electron transfer from the photoexcited molecule of the sensitizer into the conduction zone of the semiconductor nanoparticles.
