Product Description
Thioxanthen-9-One is an aromatic ketone featuring a tricyclic thioxanthene core with a ketone functional group at the 9-position. Known for its strong UV absorption and photoactivity, this compound is widely used as a photoinitiator in UV-curable systems, including inks, coatings, and adhesives. Its rigid molecular structure and efficient light-absorbing properties also make it useful in the development of fluorescent materials, photoresists, and specialty polymers in both industrial and research settings.
