- Product Highlights
- The photoinitiator Deuteron® UV 3100 hardens binder systems that polymerise cationically under UV exposure. Deuteron® UV 3101 is soluble in these binder systems including the usual solvents and reactive diluents. The start of polymerisation is initiated by exposure to UV light in the wavelength range of 220 to 250 nm.
- The maximum absorption is about 240 nm. Its own colour disappears when it is exposed to light so that for all practical purposes there is not any impairment of colour by using Deuteron® UV 3100. The handling is unproblematic at a normal daylight.
The initiator has the following benefits in relation to other initiators:
- no benzene emission
- only slight odour
- no heavy metals
Deuteron® UV 3100 does not have a negative effect on film shrinkage because it contents no volatile solvents.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Absorption Range Data
Like different radical photoinitiators, cationic photoinitiators, which in our case are based on different molecular configurations around the iodine atom, have different absorption spectra. Our initiators have their absorption maximum at about 240 nm. Since the optimal wavelength ranges for initiation are therefore more in the short-wave range, Iron-doped Mercury vapor lamps, are suitable as UVC light sources. However, standard Mercury vapor lamps also emit a high proportion in the short-wave range.
