TL;DR: A general overview of visible light photoinduced polymerization reactions is presented in this article, where reaction mechanisms as well as practical efficiency in industrial applications are discussed, and several points are investigated in detail: photochemical reactivity of photo-initiating system (PIS), short overview of available photoinitiators (PIs) and photosensitizers (PSs), mechanisms involved in selected examples of dye sensitized polymerisation reactions, examples of applications in pigmented coatings usable as paints, textile printing, glass reinforced fibers, sunlight curing of waterborne latex paints,

TL;DR: In this article, the effectiveness of piperidines as a coinitiator for photo-induced polymerization of triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate is compared with a few aliphatic amines and aromatic amines.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) of a large series of aliphatic amines by means of photoacoustic calorimetry and found that the alpha(C-H) BDEs were very similar for unconstrained amines with values very close to 91 kcal/mol.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of three components for the NIR photopolymerization of methacrylates: a dye used as a photosensitizer, an iodonium salt as a photoinitiator and a phosphine to prevent polymerization inhibition due to the oxygen and to regenerate the dye upon irradiation.
