Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Bio‐based compounds (FmHPM and FdHPM) with a furan backbone and photo‐polymerizable 2‐hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPM) group(s) were synthesized from carbohydrate‐derived furanyl alcohols (furan‐2‐methanol and furan‐2, 5‐dimethanol) and their photo‐polymerizing behaviors and mechanical properties after photo‐polymerization were investigated. Half time values (<italic>t</italic>_1/2) of bio‐based FmHPM and FdHPM were 10.4 s and 3.0 s and their shrinkage ratios were 3.0 and 6.1% during photo‐polymerization, respectively. Tensile‐shear strength of glass and polycarbonate joints bonded by bio‐based furanic compounds appeared in range of 0.2–0.6 MPa and pencil hardness of film coated by bio‐based furanic compounds after photo‐polymerization showed 2H–3H. Newly synthesized bio‐based furanic compounds allowed the feasibility to alternate petroleum‐based Bis‐GMA/TEGDMA, photo‐polymerizable composition widely utilized in a variety of applications. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
