• Application: 2-Isopropylthioxanthone is a versatile and effective photoinitiator, characterized by its light yellow appearance and general solubility. It functions efficiently at low concentrations, with an absorption range of 250 to 400 nm. This thioxanthone derivative is integral in various industrial processes, including printing inks, surface coatings, microelectronics, and photoresists. Its exceptional photoinitiation efficiency and absorption properties in the near-UV range (370-385 nm) make it particularly valuable for UV curing, facilitating the polymerization of inks on both paper- and plastic-based packaging materials. Furthermore, 2-Isopropylthioxanthone serves as a reliable analytical standard in the determination of analytes in packaged food, milk, fruit drinks, and other beverages, employing sophisticated techniques such as liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with MS/MS, and micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC).
