The coatings industry is constantly evolving, driven by demands for enhanced performance, environmental compliance, and faster production cycles. Ultraviolet (UV) curing technology has emerged as a leading solution, offering significant advantages over traditional thermal curing methods. At the heart of successful UV curing formulations lies the photoinitiator, and our Difunctional alpha hydroxy ketone (CAS 71868-15-0) stands out as a premium choice for formulators aiming for excellence. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a leading manufacturer and supplier in China, is proud to offer this high-purity chemical to drive innovation in your coatings applications.

Why Difunctional Alpha Hydroxy Ketones are Essential for Coatings

Our Difunctional alpha hydroxy ketone is a Type I photoinitiator recognized for its excellent reactivity and broad utility. Its bifunctional nature and optimized molecular structure enable it to absorb UV light effectively, initiating rapid polymerization of acrylate and methacrylate systems commonly used in coatings. Here’s why it’s a preferred choice for coatings manufacturers:

  • Enhanced Reactivity in Pigmented Systems: Unlike many other photoinitiators, our product performs exceptionally well in pigmented coatings. The ability to efficiently cure through pigments is crucial for achieving uniform film properties and desired aesthetics, making it a valuable additive for opaque or colored finishes.
  • Low Volatility and Migration: In line with increasing regulatory and consumer demands, formulations with low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and minimal migration potential are highly sought after. Our Difunctional alpha hydroxy ketone contributes significantly to achieving these critical attributes, making it suitable for demanding applications such as automotive finishes or protective coatings on sensitive materials.
  • Superior Through-Cure and Surface Cure: The balanced reactivity of this photoinitiator ensures both excellent surface cure and deep through-cure, leading to robust and durable coating films that resist scratching, abrasion, and chemical attack.
