Iodine: Your ally against radiation by Arab News (Jeddah, Saudi Arabia) The resulting radiation filter effect will be less pronounced with these photoinitiators where the absorbance extends up to 400 nm rather than with the hydroxyphenylketones which absorb precisely in the 250-300 nm wavelength region. UV-radiation curing of waterborne acrylate coatings by Lorinczova, I. / JCT Research With recent recognition that certain pollutants are eroding this natural radiation filter, researchers have raced against the clock to find substitutes for the chlorofluorocarbons and other compounds responsible.
