Abstract
The synthesis of novel triazeno‐group containing photopolymers is described including their characterization by spectroscopic methods, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. Triazene polymers synthesized by a polycondensation reaction between a bisdizaonium salt and a bifunctional secondary amine are well soluble in usual organic solvents. Transparent, light yellow films of these photopolymers may be produced by simple spin‐coating and solution‐casting techniques. The effect of polymer structural elements on the photolytic decomposition is studied. Depending on the structure of the polymer, thermolysis proceeds either via a one‐step or two‐step mechanism.
