Products in Furniture Coatings: Photoinitiator

PL-246 is a liquid photointitiator compound developed specifically for white and pastel pigmented systems as well as thicker clear films. It provides a perfect balance between surface cure and through cure to enable the best possible adhesion in these systems. Because it's a liquid, it works well as a press side additive for the printer.

PL-630 is a low viscosity liquid photointitiator blend developed specifically for pigmented UV and LED curable coatings and gels.

PL-605 is a liquid photoinitiator compound developed specifically for thick clear UV and LED curable coatings and gels.

PL-TZT is a fast curing type-II photoinitiator. In the presence of O2, the use of an amine co-initiator is recommended. It is soluble in most monomers, oligomers and pre-polymers. It is insoluble in H2O.

Dimethylamino ethyl methacrylate, also known as MADAME or DMAEMA, serves as a reducing agent or electron donor when paired with type II photoinitiators. It is water-soluble, monofunctional and can improve adhesion of formulations.

PL-165E is a 65:35 blend of oligo [ 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-[ 4-(1-methylvinyl) phenyl] propanone] and TMP(EO)3TA. It is a fast curing type-I photoinitiator soluble in most monomers, oligomers and pre-polymers but insoluble in H2O.

PL-6992 is a mixed aryl sulfonium salt cationic photoinitiator. It is very fast curing and easy to work with. It is soluble in most cycloaliphatic epoxies as well as vinyl ethers and other vinyl terminated monomers but insoluble in H2O.

PL-175D is a 75:25 blend of oligo [ 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-[ 4-(1-methylvinyl) phenyl] propanone] and DPGDA. It is a fast curing type-I photoinitiator soluble in most monomers, oligomers and pre-polymers but insoluble in H2O.

PL-450 is a liquid photoinitiator compound developed specifically for white and pastel pigmented systems as well as thicker clear films. It provides a perfect balance between surface cure and through cure to enable the best possible adhesion in these systems. Because it's a liquid, it works well as a press side additive for the printer.

PL-229W is a liquid photointitiator compound developed specifically for white and pastel pigmented systems as well as thicker clear films. It provides a perfect balance between surface cure and through cure to enable the best possible adhesion in these systems. Because it’s a liquid, it works well as a press side additive for the printer.

PL-6976 is a mixed aryl sulfonium salt cationic photoinitiator. It is very fast curing and provides lower yellowing than PL-6992. It is soluble in most cycloaliphatic epoxies as well as vinyl ethers and other vinyl terminated monomers but insoluble in H2O.

CQ or camphorquinone is a visible light-activated initiator commonly used in urethane and acrylic systems.
