Spectra Group Limited H-Nu 470

CAS Number
161728-47-8
Chemical Name
6-(n-butoxy)-24-diiodo-3-flurone

Spectra Group Limited H-Nu 470 initiates both free-radical and cationic photopolymerization, using a different set of co-initiators depending on the polymerization process • Type II photoinitiator: H-Nu 470 acts as a light harvester, followed by energy or electron transfer to a co-initiator molecule; produced reactive species activate photopolymerization • Commercial photoinitiator (TSCA status: LVE), non-toxic (LD50>5000 mg/kg).

Advantages

High absorptivity, low concentrations are needed (0.01-0.15% by weight); Capable of significant depth of cure > 1 inch; Time and energy savings when one-pass thick cure can replace thin multilayered coatings; Initiator bleaching (bright red to pale orange/no color) upon light interaction can act as cure indicator
