Abstract
Free radical polymerizable compositions contain a sulfonium salt which is tethered to at least one of an electron donor and a sensitizer, and a polymerizable monomer, demonstrate substantially enhanced photosensitivity. This invention also provides layered structures comprising a substrate coated with a free radical polymerizable composition containing a sulfonium salt which is tethered to at least one of an electron donor and a sensitizer, and the polymerized layered structures. A method for the preparation of certain tethered sulfonium salts is described.
