LED UV Curing Lamps: How Photoinitiators Behave in High and Low Temperatures
News 2026-04-25 62
In industries such as printing and electronic packaging, LED UV curing technology acts as a rapid shaping master, and photoinitiators serve as the core control switch in its operation. Once exposed to LED UV light, photoinitiators trigger chemical reactions, instantly turning liquid inks and adhesives into solid states. However, these “switches” are highly temperature-sensitive. Their performance varies drastically under high and
Effect of Distance Between LED UV Light Source and Substrate
News 2026-04-24 50
Hello everyone. Today we will share the effect of the distance between the LED UV light source and the substrate. Traditional mercury lamps produce a broad radiation spectrum with significant output in the ultraviolet region, especially in the UVC, UVB, UVA and UVV bands. This wide spectrum allows the selection of appropriate photoinitiators based on the light source type, intensity and formulation components, thereby optimizing the curing o
