Abstract: 2,4,6-Trimethylbenzoyl phosphonic acid perfluorooctyl ethyl ester (TPO-F), synthesized with ethyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphonate (TPO-L) and perfluorooctylethyl alcohol and oxalyl chloride.It was characterized by 1HNMR, 19FNMR and FT-IR. The UV absorption spectra of TPO-F were similar to those of TPO-L, the molar absorbance of maximum wavelength is slightly higher. It was confirmed that TPO-F could rapidly immigrate to formulation surface with the UV absorption depth-resolution following of TPO-F solution. The photopolymerization kinetics of acrylate monomer with TPO-L, TPO-F as photoinitiator was investigated by (Photo-DSC). TPO-F exhibits moderate photoinitiation efficiency approximating to TPO-L under nitrogen atmosphere, but improved photoinitiation efficiency for TPOL-F and its combination with TPO-L was resulted under air due to the surface self-concentration effect of TPO-F. Oxygen inhibition effect popularly existing in radical photopolymerization may thus be limited.
