Is AIBN a photoinitiator?
Azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) is used commonly as both a thermal and photoinitiator [12].
How do you dissolve irgacure 2959?
Irgacure 2959 photoinitiator is very low water soluble (1g/100 ml) but highly soluble in methanol and ethanol. so dissolve both PEGDA and initiator in methanol or water/methanol combination system.
