The demand of photoinitiators is directly dependent on its end use industries especially coating and ink. In the global landscape, these two industries heavily relied on VOCs, but as the ill-effects of VOCs are coming to light the industries and consumers are searching for alternatives. Photoinitiators proved to be a viable replacement for VOC in all applications. It is water soluble and hence eliminate the use of VOC. Photoinitiator are also more stable and non-reactive to oligomers and monomers without light and hence offer better shelf life to the product. With European and American countries putting major restrictions on the use of VOC other countries have also kept a check on the percentage composition of VOC in end products. All this account in favor of photoinitiator and can be seen in the increasing market share.
