ENERGY CALCULATION IN UV
CURING
The energy content of a photon is defined by the
equation
E = h = hc/,
where is the frequency and is the wavelength
(nm).
This equation tells us, that the shorter the
wavelength, the higher the energy of a photon.

COATINGS
The chemistry involved in the radical initiated
UV induced crosslinking can be divided into the
three steps,
1. Initiation
2.
Propagation
3.
Termination
IMPORTANCE OF PHOTO-INITIATOR
Although the UV energy applied in photo curing
may cleave CC and CH bonds, the commonly
used monomers do not produce sufficient amounts
of initiating species, which is due to low absorbance
and poor cleavage efficiency. Thus, photoinitiator is
required to initiate photo curing reaction of
Coating .
Note: The Franck-Condon principle says that the heavy atom nuclei do not change their
positions
