dc.description.abstract	In this thesis, we have synthesized polymers with UV absorbing moieties in their structure which give them resistance to the sunshine and thus, make them suitable for outdoors applications. These moieties were chosen such that they are rearranged to hydroxy benzophenone type of UV absorbers under ultraviolet radiation via Photo-Fries Rearrangement. In other words, these polymers had an improved weatherability. The project involved first the synthesis of the monomer, then the homo-polymerization of the monomer followed by the co-polymerization of it with methyl methacrylate and finally investigation of absorption behaviors of the polymers under ultraviolet radiation before and after Photo-Fries Rearrangement. Thus, synthesis and properties of polymers with potentially increased weatherability will be discussed.
