Metalized polymer and polymer-based materials are used are used in a large variety of technological applications.

Hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel compounds have been used for the omprovement of functional proporties of polymeric meterials.

In this research, an epoxy acrylate resin was synthesized and the resin was used along with different multifunctional acrylate monomers i.e. trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA), tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA), 1.6 hegzan diol diacrylate (HDDA) with different chemical structure.

Oxygen inhibition in photo-induced, free-radical polymerization of (meth)acrylates is one of the most challenging problems in thin film applications.

In addition to flat structures, UV curing technology is increasingly being used in complex 3D application. In order to achieve a consistent curing fot the quality for the products, UV irradiation should be as homogenous as possible across the 3D workpiece surface.

A growing interest is directed towards photopolymerization reactions which do not require conventional photoinitiators. A number of different approaches have been reported in the literature including both single and binary systems.

Nowadays, flexographic printing is very well established as the preferred printing technology for flexible food packaging, particulary when short runs required. Economics are favourable with modern, mid web presses, where speed of up to 300 m/min can be archieved.

Two-photon polymerization (2PP) is a new and modern technique in solid freedom fabrication of sub-micron structures from a photopolymerizable resin.
