The effects of formulation monomer ratios at three different temperatures were studied. The variations in the observed kinetic parameters can be related to increase in mobility of reactive species with temperature, distance of counter ion from the propagating cationic center, as well as extent of crosslinking reaction which controlled the course and duration of the reaction. The applicability of autocatalytic kinetic model was also evaluated and the system underwent early gelation and the activation energy decreased with an increase in phenyl glycidyl ether content. Analysis of stable photocured films containing glycerol diglycidyl ether and phenyl glycidyl ether showed better thermal stability than rigid films obtained with glycerol diglycidyl ether.</p>10aautocatalytic kinetic model10aCationic photopolymerization10aGlycidyl ether10aPhoto DSC1 aHarikrishna, Reghunathan  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/kinetics-photocationically-curable-formulations-involving-glycerol-diglycidyl-ether-and-0
