The four component system consisting of bis[2-(o-chloropheny1)-4,5-diphenylimidazole] (Cl-HABI), N,N'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone (EAB), N-phenylglycine (NPG) and an iodonium salt (BIP-T) can be used for the photoinitiation of radical polymerization reactions. The excited state processes involved are reported and all the transient species, including the triplet state and ketyl radical of EAB as well as the lophyl radical, are characterized. Rate constants of interaction between the different partners in the four component system are determined. Redox potentials of the different compounds are evaluated enabling the free energies for electron transfer reactions to be calculated. An overall scheme for the evolution of the excited states and a general discussion on the role played by the different components in photoinitiating polymerization are then provided.
