Novel 3-substituted oxetane monomers for photoinitiated cationic polymerization, compositions for polymerization containing these oxetanes, processes for polymerizing the monomers, and polymers produced thereby are disclosed. A class of oxetane monomers have the formula <IMAGE> I wherein R1 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 6 carbons, fluorine, fluoroalkyl of 1 to 6 carbons, allyl, aryl, furan or thiophene; R2 is a polyvalent radical chosen from the group consisting of linear or branched alkylene, linear or branched poly(alkyleneoxy), xylylene, and silicones; Z is oxygen or sulfur; and m is 2, 3 or 4.
