Porphyrin-Based Bio-Sourced Materials for Water Depollution Under Light Exposure.

ABSTRACT: The photoinitiation properties of two porphyrins were evaluated for the free-radical photopolymerization (FRP) of a bio-based acrylated monomer, i.e., soybean oil acrylate (SOA). Their combination with various co-initiators, such as a tertiary amine as electron donor (MDEA), an iodonium salt as electron acceptor (Iod), as well as two biosourced co-initiators used as H-donors (cysteamine and N-acetylcysteine), makes them highly efficient photoinitiating systems for FRP under visible light irradiation. Electron paramagnetic resonance spin trapping (EPR ST) demonstrated the formation of highly reactive radical species, and fluorescence and laser flash photolysis highlighted the chemical pathways followed by the porphyrin-based systems under light irradiation. High acrylate conversions up to 9
