Abstract
Several practical reproduction systems are based on photopolymerization. This review describes the chemistry of photopolymerization including absorption of radiant energy, photogeneration of free radicals, the polymerization reaction, inhibition, and methods of image detection and readout. Sensitometry is presented together with the performance of several commercial photographic applications of photopolymerization.
