    How Photoinitiators Have Revolutionized UV-curing

    Energy curing, more specifically, ultraviolet curing has been around since 1960s. However, UV-LED technology is slowly replacing conventional UV curing. The conventional process is used in various industries, offering several benefits over traditional ‘air’ drying techniques. These processes boost production speed; allow higher print quality, reduced rejection rates and glossy finishes. UV-LEDs are expected to
