Driving rapid polymerizations with visible to near-infrared (NIR) light will enable nascent technologies in the emerging fields of bio- and composite-printing. However, current photopolymerization strategies are limited by long reaction times, high light intensities, and/or large catalyst loadings. Improving efficiency remains elusive without a comprehensive, mechanistic evaluation of photocatalysis to better understand how composition relates to polymerization metrics. With this objective in mind, a series of methine- and aza-bridged boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) derivatives were synthesized and systematically characterized to elucidate key structure-property relationships that facilitate efficient photopolymerization driven by visible to NIR light. For both BODIPY scaffolds, halogenation was shown as a general method to increase polymerization rate, quantitatively characterized using a custom real-time infrared spectroscopy setup. Furthermore, a combination of steady-state emission quenching experiments, electronic structure calculations, and ultrafast transient absorption revealed that efficient intersystem crossing to the lowest excited triplet state upon halogenation was a key mechanistic step to achieving rapid photopolymerization reactions. Unprecedented polymerization rates were achieved with extremely low light intensities (< 1 mW/cm<sup>2</sup>) and catalyst loadings (< 50 μM), exemplified by reaction completion within 60 seconds of irradiation using green, red, and NIR light-emitting diodes.

Potential Applications

Structure-property relationships are important in the process optimization and fundamental understanding of many polymeric materials, including membranes. Polymer membranes are currently being used for separation, concentration or purification in a wide range of industrial process applications. The process used to manufacture the membrane, and the polymer type, determines the morphology, which influences the membrane transport properties and potential applications. The morphology includes: pore size, shape, distribution and their overall three dimensional arrangement. Microscopical methods are needed to image the structures formed by the various processes, in order to systematically study changes in variables for specific applications.

ABSTRACTMetal-oxide nanoparticles can be used to optimize UV absorption and to enhance the stiffness, toughness, and probably the service life of polymeric materials. Characterization of the nano- and microstructure dispersion of particles is necessary to optimize the structure-property relationships. Characterizations of both TiO2 particles dispersed in an acrylic-urethane matrix and TiO2 nanostructured films obtained through sol-gel synthesis are discussed. Experimental methods include microscopy (confocal, AFM) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS). Results from SANS experiments, which yield information about the cluster size of the nano-TiO2 particles and the spatial dispersion in various nanoparticle/polymer samples are presented and compared to the results of microscopy studies.
