With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the market share of LED in the photo curing field is expanding rapidly. Researchers have developed a molecule (ND-1) that possesses both co-initiating and polymerizable groups, showing good initiation effect on acrylate monomers under UV-LED irradiation. ND-1 exhibits low migration and low toxicity, making it suitable for applications in packaging with photocurable inks in various industries.
With the improvement of public's environmental protection awareness, the market share of LED in the photo curing field is also expanding rapidly, so it is necessary to develop matching photoinitiators. Here, we prepared a molecule (ND-1) possessing both co-initiating and polymerizable groups, and it exhibits a good initiation effect on acrylate monomers under UV-LED irradiation. The double bond conversion rate reaches up to 80% especially for tripropylene glycol diacrylate (TPGDA). Due to excellent photocuring effect of ND-1, it can initiate monomer polymerization in the presence of color paste and was successfully applied to photocurable inks. In addition, ND 1 exhibits low migration and low toxicity, which is very important to promote the application of packaging with photocurable inks in the food, medical, personal care and tobacco fields. Finally, the photoinitiation mechanism of ND-1 was explored. The free radicals not only come from the cleavage of CO bond, but also intermolecular hydrogen abstraction.
