Linear vinyl ether-(oligo-caprolactone)-acrylate (VPCLA), combining fast free radical and complete cationic photopolymerizable groups, was synthesized, functionalized, and photopolymerized to produce polycaprolactone (PCL) network. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra confirmed that the C = C p...
