Usage

General Description

2-Hydroxy-4-acryloyloxybenzophenone, also known as HABA, is an organic compound commonly used as a photoinitiator in the production of various polymers and coatings. It is a benzophenone derivative with a hydroxy group and an acryloyloxy group attached to the benzene ring. HABA is known for its ability to absorb UV radiation and transfer this energy to initiate the polymerization process, making it an important component in UV-curable materials such as inks and adhesives. Additionally, it is also used as a UV absorber in various sunscreens and cosmetic products to protect the skin from UV radiation. Despite its useful applications, there are concerns about potential toxicity and environmental impact, leading to ongoing efforts to find alternative photoinitiators with improved safety profiles.
