（メタ）アクリレートポリマー並びに前記ポリマーを、ポリマーに結合された紫外線開始剤として又は紫外線硬化性樹脂への添加剤として用いる使用

摘要

The invention relates to a (meth)acrylate polymer obtainable by polymerizing a mixture comprising a) 0.1% to 99.9% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylate of the general formula I in which the radicals R1-R6 and also m take on the definition indicated in the description; and b) 99.9% to 0.1% by weight of one or a plurality of ethylenically unsaturated monomers which are different from a) and which are copolymerizable with a), the components a) and b) together making up 100% by weight of the polymerizable constituents of the mixture, the MW of the polymer being situated in the range from greater than or equal to 1000 g/mol to less than or equal to 50 000 g/mol. The resulting polymers are preparable preferably by the route of suspension polymerization or bead polymerization and, preferably in solution in reactive diluent, serve as polymer-bonded photoinitiators or as an additive to UV-curable resins for a very wide variety of fields of application, particularly for printing inks.
