  • Halomethyl-1,3,5-triazines containing a monomeric moiety
    Patent number: 5387682
    Abstract: Radiation-sensitive organo-halogen compounds having a photo-labile halomethyl-1,3,5-triazine moiety and at least one polymerizable moiety within one molecule. The compounds of this invention have at least one halomethyl substituent attached to a carbon atom of the triazine moiety and at least one polymerizable monomeric moiety attached to another atom of the triazine moiety. The compounds of this invention can be used to prepare polymers having 1,3,5-triazine substituents attached thereto. The compounds of this invention are good photoinitiators, and compositions containing them can be used in printing, duplicating, copying, and other imaging systems. The compounds of this invention are capable of stimulation by actinic radiation at a wavelength of about 250 to 900 nanometers to generate free radicals.
