It is suitable for acrylic-based light-curing varnish systems, such as paper overprint varnishes, metal varnishes, plastic coatings, UV printing inks, etc. It can also be used in adhesivesas a liquid UV photoinitiator, offering excellent compatibility and ease of blending. Particularly suitable for use in combination with other photoinitiators. Due to its good yellowing resistance, it is especially recommended for UV coatings that will be exposed to sunlight for extended periods.
