Abstract

AbstractThe synthesis of new water‐soluble photoinitiators (PIs) based on hydroxyalkylphenones, benzophenones, and thioxanthones with carbohydrate residues such as glucose, cellobiose, and 1‐amino‐1‐deoxy‐D‐glucitol (glucamine) is described. In addition, selected initiators were reacted with methacryloyl chloride to obtain copolymerizable initiators with improved migration stability. Results from photo differential scanning calorimetry and gel‐content measurements in commercially available water‐thinnable and emulsion‐type resins as well as 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate are included. Glucose‐modified PIs gave the best results with respect to compatibility with the resin, reactivity, and gel content. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
