Market Introduction
A photoinitiator is a chemical compound that absorbs light energy and initiates a photochemical reaction. These substances play a critical role in UV-curable systems, such as coatings, inks, adhesives, and 3D printing resins. When exposed to light, a photoinitiator decomposes into reactive species like free radicals or cations. This, in turn, triggers the polymerization of monomers and oligomers into solid polymers. Photoinitiators are broadly categorized into Type I (cleavage-type) and Type II (hydrogen-abstraction-type). Their selection is based on various factors, including the wavelength of the light source, curing speed, depth of cure, and compatibility with the formulation. The ability of photoinitiators to enable rapid, energy-efficient curing processes with minimal environmental impact makes them essential in high-performance, eco-friendly manufacturing technologies.
