We report several kinds of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) with nonlinear optical (NLO) properties. DMA spectra show that the two components of the IPNs have good compatibility with each other. The NLO materials have good optical transparency. The thermal stability of alignment was improved

β¦ Synopsis
Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) based on polyurethane and polyacylate-containing 4-(4'-nitrophenylazo) aniline chromophore groups were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectra, gel content and differential scanning calorimet y . Thin, transparent films of the IPNs were prepared by spin-coating, followed by thermal curing and corona poling. The poled IPN film shows very good optical properties and exhibits only one glass transition temperature. The second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of the poled film were studied by visible light absorbance measurement according to onedimensional rigid oriented gas model. The second-order nonlinear optical polarizability can reach lop7 e.s.u. The poled IPN film of defined composition showed a good temporal stability of NLO properties at 120Β°C for more than 160 hr.

## SYNOPSIS Radical copolymerization of N-(azo dye) maleimide or N-(substituted phenyl) maleimide and styrene were carried out using 2,2'-azobi~-isobutyronitrile as an initiator in THF at 60Β°C. These copolymers exhibit high solubility in most of the organic solvents and excellent thermal stability
We report the characterization of copolymers of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 2-propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 2-[[[[4-methyl-3-[[(2-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)amino]carbonyl]aminophenyl]carbonyl]oxy]ethyl ester (PAMEE) exhibiting nonlinear optical (NLO) properties. The linear copolymer, poly(MMA-co-PAMEE), w
Two interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs), (one pseudo-IPN consisting of a linear polyurethane/epoxy-based polymer network and one full-IPN consisting of a poly(methyl methacrylate)/epoxy-based polymer network) have been synthesized and characterized. Both IPNs showed only one T g ; hence a homog
Highly stable films of tetranitrotetrapropoxycalix[4]arene (9) with second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties and a noncentrosymmetric structure were obtained by a novel crystallization process at 130 Β± 140 8C in a dc electric field. The packing of 9 in these films was elucidated by a combinat
