HIGHLIGHTS

Deuteron® UV 2257 is a solution of Bis-(4-methyl- phenyl)-iodoniumhexafluoro-phosphate in reactive solvents. Deuteron® photo initiators are suitable for resins based on oxirane and/or oxetane groups (epoxy resins and vinylether. The addition of Deuteron® photo initiators enables the formulator to utilize UV light to induce the polymerisation of the above-mentioned resin systems.; Deuteron® UV 2257 is soluble in the mentioned binder systems including the standard solvents and reactive diluents. The polymerization is initiated by exposure to UV light in a wavelength range between 220 nm and 250 nm. The maximum absorption is at 240 nm. Suitable light sources are high-pressure mercury lamps that have a high emission in the mentioned area of absorption.; Deuteron® UV 2257 does not affect the film shrinkage negatively because it contains no volatile solvents.
