Abstract
The invention relates to an irradiation and molding unit which can be cooled for curing light-curable polymer compositions, a method for preparing cured polymer moldings or articles coated with cured polymers by using the irradiation and molding unit which can be cooled, as well as the use of such irradiation unit for preparing polymer moldings or polymer coated articles.
Claims21
1-15. (canceled)
An irradiation and molding unit for curing light-curable polymer compositions comprising:
- one or more UV light sources for irradiating at least one transparent layer which is in contact with a light-curable polymer composition, and which is located between the UV light sources and the photo-curable polymer composition,
- at least one mold for receiving the light-curable polymer composition, and
- at least one liquid layer which is located between the transparent layer and one or more UV light sources, and which is not permanently fixed to the UV light sources.
A molding unit for curing light-curable polymer compositions, comprising:
- at least one mold for receiving a light-curable polymer composition,
- at least one transparent layer which is in contact with the light-curable polymer composition, and which is transmissible to the UV radiation, and
- at least one liquid layer, which is arranged to be irradiated by irradiation of the transparent layer.
