Abstract
The preparation and use of acrylic and fluoroacrylic polymers suitable for luminescence oxygen sensing applications are described. These materials can be used in luminophor coatings for optical fiber sensors or as coatings on aerodynamic surfaces for wind tunnel study. Compositions containing these polymers have the advantages of: (1) reduced induction effect; (2) subsecond response times; (3) low photodegradation; and (4) low temperature dependence.
