Synthesis of solvent-free acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives<i>via</i>visible-light-driven photocatalytic radical polymerization without additives

Abstract

Solvent-free acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives were prepared<italic>via</italic>visible-light driven photocatalytic free radical polymerization. Combined experiments and quantum calculations divulged the origin of the enhanced rate of polymerisation in the presence of<italic>N</italic>-vinyl monomers.
