Composite Polymer Materials for Image Reproduction Systems on the Basis of Thermo-induced Phase Transitions

Abstract

Here we present the research results of quality of light scattering by composite polymeric materials. It is shown that the polymeric films based on formation of interpolymer complexes between polyacrylamide networks and non ionic thermo responsive polymers (Polyvinylcaprolactam PVCL, Polyethylene glycol methacrylate PEGMA, Isopropylmethacrylamide IPMAA) can be used as working substance in information reproduction systems of new type. The main advantages of such information reproduction systems are full transparency in switched off state, relatively low weight and small thickness per square meter of screen. These advantages make attractive the usage of screen built with composite materials as working substance in façade desing for office and non-residental buildings for display advertising information.
