Monomers examined include (A) bisphenol A ethoxylate diacrylate (BPAEDA; n = 4), (B) triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA), (C) bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (bisGMA), (D) triethylene glycol divinyl ether (TEGDVE), and (E) N-(n-propyl)maleimide (NPM). Alkene conversion versus time for resin formulations of (F) BPAEDA, (G) bisGMA/TEGDMA, and (H) TEGDVE/NPM (vinyl ether and maleimide conversions denoted by solid and dashed lines, respectively) under continuous irradiation with exclusively 470 nm @ 100 mW/cm2 (black line, squares), 470 nm @ 100 mW/cm2 and 365 nm @ 30 mW/cm2, (red line, circles), and 365 nm @ 30 mW/cm2 (blue line, diamonds).
