This tutorial will focus the major applications of radiation curing systems today, binder materials that are used in typical radiation curing coatings, and the parameters determining their performance. Other aspects are the most important types of photoinitiators, how they work, and how they differ. Another question is which types are usually used for which specific applications and why. The tutorial also wants to find out how free radical and cationic curing mechanisms differ and what the pros and cons of both methods are.
