Isopropylthioxanthone

Description:

Isopropylthioxanthone (ITX) is an organic compound classified as a thioxanthone derivative, primarily used as a photoinitiator in UV-curable inks, coatings, and adhesives. It is characterized by its ability to absorb ultraviolet light and subsequently initiate polymerization processes, making it valuable in various industrial applications. ITX is typically a pale yellow to colorless solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Its chemical structure features a thioxanthone core, which contributes to its photochemical properties. ITX is known for its relatively low toxicity compared to other photoinitiators, although safety precautions are recommended during handling due to potential skin and eye irritation. Environmental concerns have been raised regarding its persistence and potential bioaccumulation, leading to regulatory scrutiny in some regions. Overall, Isopropylthioxanthone plays a significant role in modern printing and coating technologies, facilitating efficient curing processes under UV light.
