PHOTOPOLYMERIZABLE THIOACRYLATE MONOMERS, POLYMERS OF SAME AND OPTICAL COMPONENTS CONTAINING SAID POLYMER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A novel photocurable monomer having the formula: wherein: Ar is arylene, R1 is H, alkyl, alkoxy, amino, halogen, sulfide, sulfoxide, sulfonate, aryl or heterocyclic; R2 is H, alkyl, aryl or aralkyl; and R3 is H or CH3; is useful in preparing a polymer having a high refractive index. The polymer is useful in optical components, such as lenses. |
