Abstract
We study the effect of the duration of ultraviolet irradiation of D-1 and D-2 photopolymerizable compositions on some physicomechanical properties of a photopolymeric material obtained in the process of photopolymerization. It is shown that these properties become most pronounced for a certain fixed duration of ultraviolet treatment and, hence, continuation of this process becomes unreasonable. The degree of conversion α of photopolymeric materials does not exceed 70%. Strength and some other characteristics of photopolymers can be improved by additional treatment of the material with high-frequency currents. This kind of treatment is characterized by lower power consumption and can be performed much faster than routine thermal treatment (by about two orders of magnitude).
