The control of monomer polymerization is important when preparing biocompatible devices. The compound 2-(hydroxyethyl)methacrylate can be polymerized by redox systems using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) (as accelerator) and a substituted arnine (as initiator). However, this system is associated with a highly exothermic polymerization, and end-products with inflammatory properties are produced. We have used ascorbic acid (AA) to induce BPO fragmentation and have compared the kinetics of the reaction, by Raman microscopy, with that obtained with a substituted amine. The breaking of the C=C bond (Raman stretching vibration at 1641 cm(-1)) could be monitored in both cases and reflected the incorporation of new monomer molecules into the chain. The AA-induced polymerization was slower than with the substituted amine and was accompanied by the appearance of a new band at 1603 cm(-1), assigned to the stretching vibrations of -COOH species incorporated into the chains. Raman microscopy appears to be a powerful tool in the study of polymeric biornaterial preparation. Copyright (c) 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
