Description: Surface-active photoinitiators The invention relates to surface-active photoinitiators, to a process for the production of scratch-resistant durable coatings in which such photoinitiators are used, and to compositions comprising novel surface-active photoinitiators. In order to improve the miscibility (compatibility) of photoinitiators with silicone-containing substrates that are to be photochemically crosslinked, there are proposed, for example in WO 97/49768, US 5 776 658, US 4391 963 and EP 088 842, photoinitiators, for example of the hydroxyketone, aminoketone, benzoin ether, benzophenone or thioxanthone type, modified with silyl radicals, especially also polymeric silyl radicals. Also described, in patent specifications US 4536265, US 4 534 838 and EP 162 572, is a wide variety of photoinitiator structures provided with organopolysiloxane radicals. Such compounds are derived, for example, from dialkoxyacetophenones and exhibit an increased solubility in silicone substrates. US 4507 187 discloses silyl-group-containing diketo photoinitiators as photoinitiators that are readily soluble in silicone polymers, as well as the polymers obtained using those initiators. There are described in US 4 477 326 self-polymerizing siloxane polymers that contain photoinitiator units as groups triggering a polymerization reaction. Polymeric photoinitiators having siloxane radicals are described in US 4587276. In J. .S. Pure Appl. Chem. A31(3) (1994), 305-318, A. Kolar, H.F. Gruber and G. Greber report on reactive silyl-derived oc-hydroxyketone photoinitiators. The literature references mentioned are concerned especially with solving the problem of improving the miscibility of the photoinitiators with the substrate to be polymerized, that is to say of making the distribution of the initiator in the substrate as homogeneous as possible. WO 98/00456 proposes specific coating compositions, as well as a curing method that results in improved properties of the coating surface. In the coating industry, new, energy-saving curing mechanisms and applications causing as few emissions as possible are being sought for the production of durable scratch-resistant coatings. There is also a particular need to improve the surface of coatings, especially in respect of hardness, durability and gloss properties. It has now been found that the desired properties can be attained by using certain photoinitiators in the coatings to be cured. For that purpose the photoinitiator is not distributed as homogeneously as possible in the formulation to be cured but concentrated specifically at the surface of the coating to be cured, specific orientation of the initiator towards the surface of the formulation thus taking place. To achieve this it is necessary to use photoinitiators having particular properties. The invention relates to a process for the production of coatings having scratch-resistant durable surfaces, which comprises (1) preparing a photocurable formulation comprising (A) an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable compound; and (B) a photoinitiator; (2) applying the formulation to a substrate; and (3) curing the formulation either solely by irradiation with electromagnetic radiation, for example of a wavelength ranging from 200 nm into the IR region, especially, for example, from 200 to 800 nm or from 200 to 600 nm, or by irradiation with electromagnetic radiation, for example of a wavelength ranging from 200 nm into the IR region, especially, for example, from 200 to 800 nm or from 200 to 600 nm, and the prior, simultaneous and/or subsequent action of heat; wherein the formulation comprises as photoinitiator (B) at least one surface-active photoinitiator, concentrated at the surface of the formulation, of formula la, lb, Ic or Id: O o o II II II R— C— R., (la) R— C— C— R 1 (lb) (Id), wherein R and R are each independently of the other a radical of formula II wherein in formula II R2, R3, R 4 , R5 and R 6 are each independently of the others hydrogen; A-X-, ArXr .

The molar ratios of the alkenyl-modified compounds (IV), (IVa), (IVb), (IVc), (IVd), (IVe), (IVf), (IVg), (IVh) or (IVi) and the siloxane compounds (V) depend on the product desired and are generally not critical. For example the amount of (IV), (IVa), (IVb), (IVc), (IVd), (IVe), (IVf), (IVg), (IVh) or (IVi) to be used is selected in accordance with the content of free Si-H groups in (V) and the desired degree of substitution of those groups in the case in question. If all groups are to react, then, for example, advantageously (IV), (IVa), (IVb), (IVc), (IVd), (IVe), (IVf), (IVg), (IVh) or (IVi) should be added in excess. It is, however, also possible to use an excess of component (V). The reaction temperatures are advantageously maintained in a range from 20 to 150°C, preferably from 60 to 110°C. It is furthermore advantageous to carry out the reaction, for example, in a suitable aprotic organic solvent, for example tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane, hexane, heptane, cyclohexane, toluene, xylene, benzene or chlorobenzene, but it is, for example, also possible to work without solvents. The reaction mixture is usually stirred while the reaction is being carried out.

There can be used as carrier material, for example, also carbon (Pt C - but that catalyst does not have to be anhydrous - obtainable, for example, from Johnson Matthey). Examples of suitable catalysts include platinum, palladium, rhodium, nickel, cobalt and other metals, especially in powder form or in the form of complexes. Examples include platinum sponge, platinum black, chloroplatinic acid, the reaction product of chloroplatinic acid and alcohol, a complex of chloroplatinic acid and vinylsiloxane. Such catalysts are available commercially, e.g. platinum-carbonyl-cyclovinylmethylsiloxane complex, platinum-divinyl- tetramethyldisiloxane complex, platinum octane aldehyde/octanol complex, or can be obtained according to methods that are known to the person skilled in the art and are customary in the art. The concentration of the catalyst is advantageously, for example, from 1 to 1000 ppm, e.g. from 150 to 400 ppm. Such reactions are described, for example, in WO 97/49768 or in EP 088 842. II.

Grignard reaction is used to create a reactive centre that is reacted with dimethyidichlorosilane or dimethyl monochlorosilane to form the corresponding silyl-modified chlorobenzene on which the corresponding α-cleavable photoinitiator carbonyl radical is inserted by further reactions.

Preference is given to a process in which, in the compounds of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id, R and ^ are each independently of the other a radical of formula II, wherein in formula II R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 and R 6 are each independently of the others hydrogen; A-X-, ArXr, unsubstituted CrC 12 alkyl, or C 2 -C 12 alkyl interrupted by one or more non- consecutive oxygen atoms; or R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 and R 6 are OR 12 , halogen or unsubstituted phenyl; with the proviso that in formulae (la) and (lb) at least one substituent A-X- or A Xr is present in at least one of the radicals R and R ; or R and ^ are naphthyl, the naphthyl radical being unsubstituted or substituted by A-X-, A Xr, C C 8 alkyl and/or by ORι 2 ; wherein in formula Ic R 2 , R 3 , R , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 and R 9 are each independently of the others hydrogen; A-X-, ArXr, unsubstituted CrCι 2 alkyl, or C 2 -Cι 2 alkyl interrupted by one or more non-consecutive oxygen atoms; or R 2 , R 3 , R , R 5 and R 6 are OR 12 , halogen or unsubstituted phenyl; with the proviso that in formula (Ic) at least one of the radicals R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 and R 9 is A-X- or A X r ; wherein in formula Id R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are each independently of the others hydrogen; A-X-, A Xr, unsubstituted C C 12 alkyl, or C 2 -C 12 alkyl interrupted by one or more non- consecutive oxygen atoms; or R 2 , R 3 , R , R 5 and R 6 are OR 12 , halogen or unsubstituted phenyl ; with the proviso that in formula (Id) at least one of the radicals R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 is A-X- or ArXr; R 10 is CrC 8 alkyl, or phenyl unsubstituted or substituted by A-X-; R 12 is hydrogen or unsubstituted CrCι 2 alkyl; or R 12 is C 2 -C 12 alkyl interrupted by one or more non-consecutive oxygen atoms; or Rι 2 is phenyl, C 3 -C 6 alkenyl, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl; Ris. R 19 . R20, R21, R 2 2, R 23 . R 2 4. R 25 . R 26 and R 27 are each independently of the others CrC 18 alkyl or phenyl; X and X 1 ; when A or A is a radical of formula HI, are each independently of the other CrC 10 alkylene, -(CH 2 ) a -O-, -(CH 2 ) a -O-(CH 2 ) b -, -O-(CH 2 ) a -O-(CH 2 ) b -, -(CH 2 ) a -O-(CH 2 ) b -O-, -(CH 2 ) a -NR 17 -(CH 2 ) b - or -(CH 2 ) a -NR 17 - ; and X and X 1 ; when A or A^ denotes A 0 , are each independently of the other a single bond, -O-, -S- or -NR 17 -. Special preference is given to a process in which, in the compounds of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id, A and A^ are a radical of formula III. The following are examples of compounds of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id according to the invention: , θ-( (CCHH, 2 )),,--CH 3 The compounds of formula I contain at least one substituent -X-A or -X 1 -A 1 . Those substituents are the radicals that bring about the surface activity of the photoinitiator compounds, that is to say ensure that the photoinitiator is concentrated at the surface of the formulation to be cured. The photoinitiators are used in accordance with the invention to cure free-radical- polymerizable systems with the aim of obtaining a cured surface having excellent properties. For that purpose, it is crucial for the photoinitiator to be concentrated at the surface of the formulation to be cured. As has already been stated above, this is achieved by appropriate substituents on the photoinitiator. An improvement in the surface properties can be achieved with the aid of such initiators not only in purely photocurable systems but also in formulations that are a mixture of thermally curable and photocurable. The present invention accordingly relates both to the use of the photoinitiators of formula I in purely photocurable formulations and to the use of the photoinitiators of formula I in formulations that are a mixture of photochemically and thermally curable. The thermal curing can be effected before, during or after the exposure to light. The invention accordingly relates also to a process as described above in which the photocurable formulation comprises as further component at least one thermally crosslinkable compound (C), and in which the formulation is cured by irradiation with light of a wavelength ranging from 200 nm into the IR region, and the prior, simultaneous and/or subsequent action of heat. According to the invention, the compounds of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id can be used as surface-active photoinitiators for the photopolymerization of ethylenically unsaturated compounds or of mixtures that comprise such compounds, and are oriented towards the surface of the formulation in question. According to the invention, a process for concentrating a photoinitiator at the surface of coatings thus comprises adding a surface-active photoinitiator of formula la, lb, Ic or Id to the photopolymerizable mixture comprising the ethylenically unsaturated photopolymerizable compounds. According to the invention, when the intended use of the initiators of formula (I) is as surface-active photoinitiators, they are not used in compositions that contain siloxane- modified resin components. The compounds according to the invention are, however, excellently suitable for increasing the miscibility and compatibility of the initiator molecule with such siloxane-modified resins. Their use as surface-active photoinitiators is preferred. The photoinitiators can also be used in combination with other photoinitiators (E) and/or further additives (D). The invention accordingly relates also to photopolymerizable compositions comprising (A) at least one ethylenically unsaturated free-radical-photopolymerizable compound; and (B) at least one surface-active photoinitiator of formula la, lb, Ic or Id; and (D) optionally, as additional additive, an amine. The invention relates furthermore to photopolymerizable compositions comprising (A) at least one ethylenically unsaturated free-radical-photopolymerizable compound; (B) at least one surface-active photoinitiator of formula la, lb, Ic or Id; (C) at least one thermally crosslinkable compound; and (D) optionally, as additional additive, an amine. In accordance with the invention, the compositions may also comprise further different photoinitiators (E) and/or further additives (D). Catalysts for the thermal crosslinking may also be added. Suitable examples are listed hereinbelow. The unsaturated compounds (A) may contain one or more olefinic double bonds. They may be low molecular weight (monomeric) or higher molecular weight (oligomeric). Examples of monomers having a double bond include alkyl and hydroxyalkyl acrylates and methacrylates, for example methyl, ethyl, butyl, 2-ethylhexyl and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, isobornyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate and ethyl methacrylate. Further examples are acrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide, N-substituted (meth)acrylamides, vinyl esters, such as vinyl acetate, vinyl ethers, such as isobutyl vinyl ether, styrene, alkyl- and halo- styrenes, N-vinylpyrrolidone, vinyl chloride and vinylidene chloride. t Examples of monomers having a plurality of double bonds include ethylene glycol diacrylate, propylene glycol diacrylate, neopentyl glycol diacrylate, hexamethylene glycol diacrylate and bisphenol-A diacrylate, 4,4'-bis(2-acryloyloxyethoxy)diphenylpropane, trimethylolpropane tri- acrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, vinyl acrylate, divinyl- benzene, divinyl succinate, diallyl phthalate, triallyl phosphate, triallyl isocyanurate and tris(2- acryloyl ethyl) isocyanurate. Examples of higher molecular weight (oligomeric) polyunsaturated compounds include acrylated epoxy resins, acrylated or vinyl ether- or epoxy-group-containing polyesters, polyurethanes and polyethers. Further examples of unsaturated oligomers include unsaturated polyester resins, which are usually prepared from maleic acid, phthalic acid and one or more diols and have molecular weights of about from 500 to 3000. In addition, it is also possible to use vinyl ether monomers and oligomers, and also maleate-terminated oligomers having polyester, polyurethane, polyether, polyvinyl ether and epoxide main chains. Combinations of vinyl ether-group-carrying oligomers and polymers, as described in WO 90/01512, are especially suitable, but copolymers of monomers functionalized with vinyl ether and maleic acid also come into consideration. Also suitable are compounds having one or more free-radical-polymerizable double bonds. Preferably, the free-radical-polymerizable double bonds in such compounds are in the form of (meth)acryloyl groups. (Meth)acryloyl and (meth)acryl, here and in the following, denote acryloyl and/or methacryloyl, and acryl and/or methacryl, respectively. Preferably at least two polymerizable double bonds in the form of (meth)acryloyl groups are present in the molecule. The compounds may be, for example, (meth)acryloyl-functional oligomeric and/or polymeric compounds of poly(meth)acrylate. The number average molecular weight of such a compound may be, for example, from 300 to 10 000, preferably from 800 to 10 000. The compounds containing preferably free-radical-polymerizable double bonds in the form of (meth)acryloy! groups can be obtained according to customary methods, for example by reaction of poly(meth)acry!ates with (meth)acrylic acid. That method, and further methods of preparation, are described in the literature and are known to the person skilled in the art. Such unsaturated oligomers can also be termed prepolymers. Functionalized acrylates are also suitable. Examples of suitable monomers normally used to form the backbone (the base polymer) of such functionalized acrylate and methacrylate polymers include, for example, acrylate, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, n-butyl acrylate, n-butyl methacrylate, isobutyl acrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate etc.. In addition, suitable amounts of functional monomers are copolymerized during the polymerization in order to obtain the functional polymers in that way. Acid-functionalized acrylate or methacrylate polymers are obtained using acid-functional monomers, such as acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. Hydroxy-functional acrylate or methacrylate polymers are obtained from hydroxy- functional monomers, such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, 3,4-dihydroxybutyl methacrylate. Epoxy-functionalized acrylate or methacrylate polymers are obtained using epoxy-functional monomers, such as glycidyl methacrylate, 2,3-epoxybutyl methacrylate, 3,4-epoxybutyl methacrylate, 2,3-epoxycyclohexyl methacrylate, 10,11-epoxy- undecyl methacrylate etc.. Similarly, it is possible, for example, for isocyanate-functionalized polymers to be prepared from isocyanate-functionalized monomers, for example meta- isopropenyl-α,α-dimethylbenzyl isocyanate. There are especially suitable, for example, esters of ethylenically unsaturated mono- or poly- functional carboxylic acids and polyols or polyepoxides, and polymers having ethylenically unsaturated groups in the chain or in side groups, e.g. unsaturated polyesters, polyamides and polyurethanes and copolymers thereof, alkyd resins, polybutadiene and butadiene copolymers, polyisoprene and isoprene copolymers, polymers and copolymers having (meth)acryl groups in side chains, and also mixtures of one or more such polymers. Examples of suitable mono- or poly-functional unsaturated carboxylic acids are acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, itaconic acid, cinnamic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, and unsaturated fatty acids such as linolenic acid or oleic acid. Acrylic acid and methacrylic acid are preferred.. It is also possible, however, for saturated di- or poly-carboxylic acids to be used in admixture with unsaturated carboxylic acids. Examples of suitable saturated di- or poly-carboxylic acids include, for example, tetrachlorophthalic acid, tetrabromophthalic acid, phthalic anhydride, adipic acid, tetrahydrophthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, trimellitic acid, heptanedicarboxylic acid, sebacic acid, dodecanedicarboxylic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid etc.. Suitable polyols are aromatic and especially aliphatic and cycloaliphatic polyols. Examples of aromatic polyols include hydroquinone, 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl, 2,2-di(4-hydroxyphenyl)- propane, and novolaks and resols. Examples of polyepoxides are those based on the said polyols, especially the aromatic polyols, and epichlorohydrin. Also suitable as polyols are polymers and copolymers that contain hydroxyl groups in the polymer chain or in side groups, e.g. polyvinyl alcohol and copolymers thereof and polymethacrylic acid hydroxyalkyl esters or copolymers thereof. Further suitable polyols are oligo esters having hydroxyl terminal groups. Examples of aliphatic and cycloaliphatic polyols include alkylenediols having preferably from 2 to 12 carbon atoms, such as ethylene glycol, 1,2- and 1 ,3-propanediol, 1,2-, 1 ,3- and 1 ,4- butanediol, pentanediol, hexanediol, octanediol, dodecanediol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, polyethylene glycols having molecular weights of preferably from 200 to 1500, 1,3- cyclopentanediol, 1,2-, 1,3- and 1 ,4-cyclohexanediol, 1 ,4-dihydroxymethylcyclohexane, glycerol, tris(β-hydroxyethy!)amine, trimethylolethane, trimethyloipropane, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol and sorbitol. The polyols may be partially or fully esterified with one or with different unsaturated carboxylic acid(s), it being possible for the free hydroxyl groups in partial esters to be modified, for example etherified, or esterified with other carboxylic acids. Examples of esters are: trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolethane triacrylate, trimethylolpropane trimethacryl- ate, trimethylolethane trimethacrylate, tetramethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, tetraethylene glycol diacrylate, pentaerythritol diacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol diacrylate, dipentaerythritol triacrylate, dipentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, tripentaerythritol octaacrylate, pentaerythritol dimethacrylate, pentaerythritol trimethacrylate, dipentaerythritol dimethacrylate, dipentaerythritol tetramethacrylate, tripentaerythritol octamethacrylate, pentaerythritol diitaconate, dipentaerythritol trisitaconate, dipentaerythritol pentaitaconate, dipentaerythritol hexaitaconate, ethylene glycol diacrylate, 1 ,3-butanediol diacrylate, 1 ,3-butanediol dimethacrylate, 1 ,4-butanediol diitaconate, sorbitol triacrylate, sorbitol tetraacrylate, pentaerythritol-modified triacrylate, sorbitol tetramethacrylate, sorbitol pentaacrylate, sorbitol hexaacrylate, oligo ester acrylates and methacryl- ates, glycerol di- and tri-acrylate, 1 ,4-cyciohexane diacrylate, bisacrylates and bismeth- acrylates of polyethylene glycol having a molecular weight of from 200 to 1500, and mixtures thereof. Also suitable as component (A) are the amides of identical or different unsaturated carboxylic acids and aromatic, cycloaliphatic and aliphatic polyamines having preferably from 2 to 6, especially from 2 to 4, amino groups. Examples of such polyamines are ethylene- diamine, 1 ,2- and 1 ,3-propylenediamine, 1 ,2-, 1 ,3- and 1 ,4-butylenediamine, 1 ,5-pentylene- diamine, 1 ,6-hexylenediamine, octylenediamine, dodecylenediamine, 1 ,4-diaminocyclo- hexane, isophorone diamine, phenylenediamine, bisphenylenediamine, di-β-aminoethyl ether, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine and di(β-aminoethoxy)- and di(β-amino- propoxy)-ethane. Further suitable polyamines are polymers and copolymers which may have additional amino groups in the side chain and oligoamides having amino terminal groups. Examples of such unsaturated amides are: methylene bisacrylamide, 1 ,6-hexamethylene bisacrylamide, diethylenetriamine trismethacrylamide, bis(methacrylamidopropoxy)ethane, β-methacrylamidoethyl methacrylate and N-[(β-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]-acrylamide. Suitable unsaturated polyesters and polyamides are derived, for example, from maleic acid and diols or diamines. The maleic acid may have been partially replaced by other dicarboxylic acids. They may be used together with ethylenically unsaturated comonomers, e.g. styrene. The polyesters and polyamides may also be derived from dicarboxylic acids and ethylenically unsaturated diols or diamines, especially from those having relatively long chains of e.g. from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. Examples of polyurethanes are those composed of saturated diisocyanates and unsaturated diols or unsaturated diisocyanates and saturated diols. Polybutadiene and polyisoprene and copolymers thereof are known. Suitable comonomers include, for example, olefins, such as ethylene, propene, butene and hexene, (meth)- acrylates, acrylonitrile, styrene and vinyl chloride. Polymers having (meth)acrylate groups in the side chain are likewise known. They may be, for example, reaction products of novolak- based epoxy resins with (meth)acrylic acid; homo- or co-polymers of vinyl alcohol or hydroxyalkyl derivatives thereof that have been esterified with (meth)acrylic acid; or homo- and co-polymers of (meth)acrylates that have been esterified with hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylates. The photopolymerizable compounds (A) can be used on their own or in any desired mixtures. Preferably, mixtures of polyol (meth)acrylates are used. Binders may also be added to the compositions according to the invention, this being particularly advantageous when the photopolymerizable compounds are liquid or viscous substances. The amount of binder may be, for example, from 5 to 95% by weight, preferably from 10 to 90% by weight and especially from 40 to 90% by weight, based on total solids. The choice of the binder is made in accordance with the field of use and the properties required therefor, such as developability in aqueous and organic solvent systems, adhesion to substrates and sensitivity to oxygen. Suitable binders are, for example, polymers having a molecular weight of approximately from 5000 to 2000000, preferably from 10000 to 1 000000. Examples are: homo- and copolymers of acrylates and methacrylates, e.g. copolymers of methyl methacrylate/ethyl acrylate/methacrylic acid, po!y(methacrylic acid alkyl esters), poly(acrylic acid alkyl esters); cellulose esters and ethers, such as cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, methyl- cellulose, ethylcellulose; polyvinyl butyral, polyvinyl formal, cyclized caoutchouc, polyethers such as polyethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide, polytetrahydrofuran; polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyurethane, chlorinated polyolefins, polyvinyl chloride, copolymers of vinyl chloride/vinylidene chloride, copolymers of vinylidene chloride with acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate and vinyl acetate, polyvinyl acetate, copoly(ethylene/vinyl acetate), polymers such as polycaprolactam and po!y(hexamethylene adipamide), polyesters such as polyethylene glycol terephthalate) and poly(hexamethylene glycol succinate). There may also be used as component (A), that is to say as UV-curable component, the resins listed hereinbelow under (C1). Of special interest are, for example, unsaturated acrylates having reactive functional groups. The reactive functional group may, for example, be selected from a hydroxyl, thiol, isocyanate, epoxy, anhydride, carboxyl, amino and a blocked amino group. Examples of OH-group-containing unsaturated acrylates are hydroxyethyl, hydroxybutyl and also glycidyl acrylates. The unsaturated compounds can also be used in admixture with non-photopolymerizable film-forming components. These may be, for example, polymers that can be dried physically or solutions thereof in organic solvents, for example nitrocellulose or cellulose acetobutyrate, but they may also be chemically or thermally curable resins, for example polyisocyanates, polyepoxides or melamine resins. Melamine resins are to be understood as meaning not only condensation products of melamine (=1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine) but also condensation products of melamine derivatives. They are generally film-forming binders based on a thermoplastic or thermocurable resin, mainly on a thermocurable resin. Examples include alkyd resins, acrylic resins, polyester resins, phenol resins, melamine resins, epoxy resins and polyurethane resins and mixtures thereof. The concomitant use of thermally curable resins is important for use in so-called hybrid systems, which are both photopolymerized and thermally crosslinked. Component (A) may be, for example, a coating composition comprising (A1) one or more compounds containing free-radical-polymerizable double bonds that, in addition, contain at least one further functional group that is reactive in terms of an addition and/or condensation reaction (examples are given hereinbefore), (A2) one or more compounds containing free-radical-polymerizable double bonds that, in addition, contain at least one further functional group that is reactive in terms of an addition and/or condensation reaction, the additional reactive functional group being complementary to, that is to say reactive with, the additional reactive functional group(s) of component (A1), (A3) optionally at least one monomeric, oligomeric and/or polymeric compound having at least one functional group that is reactive, in terms of an addition and/or condensation reaction, with respect to the functional groups of component (A1) or component (A2) present in addition to the free-radical-polymerizable double bonds. r Component (A2) carries the relevant groups complementary to, that is to say reactive with, component (A1). It is also possible for different kinds of functional group to be present in one component. With component (A3), there is a further component available that contains functional groups reactive in terms of addition and/or condensation reactions, those groups being able to react with the functional groups of (A1 ) or (A2) present in addition to the free- radical-polymerizable double bonds. Component (A3) does not contain any free-radical- polymerizable double bonds. Examples of such (A1), (A2), (A3) combinations are to be found in WO 99/55785. Examples of suitable reactive functional groups are selected, for example, from hydroxyl, thiol, isocyanate, epoxy, anhydride, carboxyl and blocked amino groups. Examples are described hereinbefore. Constituents of component (C) include, for example, thermally curable surface-coating or coating-system constituents customary in the art. Where appropriate, component (C) accordingly consists of a plurality of constituents. Examples of component (C) include, for example, oligomers and/or polymers derived from oc,β-unsaturated acids and derivatives thereof, e.g. polyacrylates and polymethacrylates, polymethyl methacrylates modified in respect of impact resistance using butyl acrylate, polyacrylamides and polyacrylonitriles. Further examples of component (C) are urethanes, polyurethanes that are derived on the one hand from polyethers, polyesters and polyacrylates having free hydroxyl groups or thiol groups and on the other hand from aliphatic or aromatic polyisocyanates, and precursors thereof. Accordingly component (C) includes, for example, also crosslinkable acrylic resins derived from substituted acrylic acid esters, e.g. epoxy acrylates, urethane acrylates or polyester acrylates. In addition, alkyd resins, polyester resins and acrylate resins and modifications thereof that are crosslinked with melamine resins, urea resins, isocyanates, isocyanurates, polyisocyanates, polyisocyanurates and epoxy resins, can be constituents of component (C). Component (C) is, for example, generally a film-forming binder based on a thermoplastic or thermocurable resin, chiefly on a thermocurable resin. Examples include alkyd resins, acrylic resins, polyester resins, phenol resins, melamine resins, epoxy resins, polyurethane resins and mixtures thereof. Examples of such resins are described, for example, in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th edition, Vol. A18, pp. 368-426, VCH, Weinheim 1991. Component (C) can be a cold-curable or a hot-curable binder, the addition of a curing catalyst possibly being advantageous. Suitable catalysts for accelerating the full cure of the binder are described, for example, in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Vol. A18, p. 469, VCH Verlagsgesellschaft, Weinheim 1991. The following are examples of special binders suitable as component (C): 1. surface-coating compositions based on cold- or hot-crosslinkable alkyd, acrylate, polyester, epoxy or melamine resins or mixtures of such resins, optionally with the addition of a curing catalyst; 2. two-component polyurethane surface-coating compositions based on hydroxyl-group- containing acrylate, polyester or polyether resins and aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 3. two-component polyurethane surface-coating compositions based on thiol-group- containing acrylate, polyester or polyether resins and aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 4. one-component polyurethane surface-coating compositions based on blocked isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates which are deblocked during stoving; the addition of melamine resins is also possible, if desired; 5. one-component polyurethane surface-coating compositions based on aliphatic or aromatic urethanes or polyurethanes and hydroxyl-group-containing acrylate, polyester or polyether resins; 6. one-component polyurethane surface-coating compositions based on aliphatic or aromatic urethane acrylates or polyurethane acrylates having free amine groups in the urethane structure and melamine resins or polyether resins, optionally with the addition of a curing catalyst; 7. two-component surface-coating compositions based on (poly)ketimines and aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 8. two-component surface-coating compositions based on (poly)ketimines and an unsaturated acrylate resin or a polyacetoacetate resin or a methacrylamidoglycolate methyl ester; 9. two-component surface-coating compositions based on carboxyl- or amino-group- containing polyacrylates and polyepoxides; 10. two-component surface-coating compositions based on anhydride-group-containing acrylate resins and a polyhydroxy or polyamino component; 11. two-component surface-coating compositions based on acrylate-containing anhydrides and polyepoxides; 12. two-component surface-coating compositions based on (poly)oxazolines and anhydride- group-containing acrylate resins or unsaturated acrylate resins or aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 13. two-component surface-coating compositions based on unsaturated (poly)acrylates and (poly)malonates; 14. thermoplastic polyacrylate surface-coating compositions based on thermoplastic acrylate resins or extrinsically crosslinking acrylate resins in combination with etherified melamine resins; 15. surface-coating systems, especially clear lacquers, based on malonate-blocked isocyanates with melamine resins (e.g. hexamethoxymethylmelamine) as crosslinkers (acid- catalysed); 16. UV-curable systems based on oligomeric urethane acrylates and/or acylate acrylates, optionally with the addition of other oligomers or monomers; 17. dual-cure systems, which are cured first thermally and then by UV, or vice versa, the constituents of the surface-coating formulation containing double bonds that can be caused to react by UV light and photoinitiators and/or by electron beam curing. Blocked isocyanates as may be employed, inter alia, in component (C) are described, for example, in Organischer Metallschutz: Entwicklung und Anwendung von Beschichtungs- stoffen [Organic Protection of Metals: Development and Application of Coating Materials], page 159-160, Vincentz Verlag, Hannover (1993). These are compounds in which the highly reactive NCO group is "blocked" by reaction with specific radicals, such as primary alcohols, phenol, acetoacetates, ε-caprolactam, phthalimide, imidazole, oxime or amine. The blocked isocyanate is stable in liquid systems and also in the presence of hydroxyl groups. On heating, the blocking agents are eliminated again and the NCO group is exposed. Both 1 -component (1K) and 2-component (2K) systems may be used as component (C). Examples of such systems are described in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Vol. A18, Paints and Coatings, page 404-407, VCH Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, Weinheim (1991). The composition may be optimized by specially adapting the formulation, for example by varying the binder/crosslinker ratio. Such measures are well known to the person skilled in the art of coatings technology. In the curing process of the invention, component (C) is preferably a mixture based on acrylate/melamine (and melamine derivatives), 2-component polyurethane, 1 -component polyurethane, 2-component epoxy/carboxy or 1 -component epoxy/carboxy. Mixtures of these systems are also possible, an example being the addition of melamine (or derivatives thereof) to 1 -component polyurethanes. Component (C) is preferably a binder based on a polyacrylate with melamine or on a melamine derivative. Preference is also given to a system based on a polyacrylate polyol or/and polyester polyol with an unblocked polyisocyanate or polyisocyanurate. Component (C) may furthermore comprise monomeric or/and oligomeric compounds containing ethylenically unsaturated bonds (prepolymers) which additionally contain at least one or more OH, HS, NH 2 , COOH, epoxy or NCO groups (= C1) capable of reaction with the binder and/or crosslinker constituent of component (C). Following application and thermal curing, the ethylenically unsaturated bonds are converted by UV radiation into a crosslinked, high molecular weight form. Examples of such components (C) are described, for example, in the above-mentioned publication, Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5 th edition, Vol. A18, pages 451-453, or by S. Urano, K. Aoki, N. Tsuboniva and R. Mizuguchi in Progress in Organic Coatings, 20 (1992), 471-486, or by H. Terashima and O. Isozaki in JOCCA 1992 (6), 222. (C1) may be, for example, an OH-group-containing unsaturated acrylate, e.g. hydroxyethyl or hydroxybutyl acrylate, or a glycidyl acrylate. Component (C1) may be of any desired construction (may comprise, e.g., polyester, polyacrylate, polyether units, etc.) provided that an ethylenically unsaturated double bond and also free OH, COOH, NH 2 , epoxy or NCO groups are present. (C1) can also be obtained, for example, by reacting an epoxy-functional oligomer with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. A typical example of an OH-functional oligomer containing vinylic double bonds is obtained by reacting One possibility for preparing component (C1) is also, for example, the reaction of an oligomer that contains only one epoxy group and at another position in the molecule possesses a free OH group. The ratio of components (A) to (C) in the UV-crosslinking and thermally crosslinking formulations is not critical. "Dual-cure" systems are well known to the person skilled in the art, who is therefore well aware of the optimum ratios of the UV-crosslin.kable and thermally crosslinkable components for the particular desired application. For example, the compositions may comprise components (A) and (C) in a ratio of from 5:95 to 95:5, from 20:80 to 80:20 or from 30:70 to 70:30, e.g. from 40:60 to 60:40. Examples of "dual-cure" systems, i.e. systems containing both UV-curable and thermally curable components, may be found, inter alia, in US 5922473, columns 6 to 10. It is also possible to add solvents or water to the compositions used in the process of the invention. Where the compositions are used without solvents, they are, for example, powder coating formulations. Suitable solvents are solvents which are known to the person skilled in the art and are customary particularly in coatings technology. Examples are various organic solvents, such as ketones, e.g. methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone; aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. toluene, xylene or tetramethylbenzene; glycol ethers, such as diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol diethyl ether; esters, such as ethyl acetate; aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as hexane, octane, decane; or petroleum solvents, such as petroleum ether. The invention also provides compositions comprising as component (A) at least one ethylenically unsaturated photopolymerizable compound in emulsion or solution in water. Such radiation-curable aqueous prepolymer dispersions are available commercially in numerous variations. They are understood to be a dispersion of water and at least one prepolymer dispersed therein. The concentration of the water in these systems is, for example, from 5 to 80% by weight, especially from 30 to 60% by weight. The radiation- curable prepolymer or prepolymer mixture is present, for example, in concentrations of from 95 to 20% by weight, especially from 70 to 40% by weight. In these compositions the sum of the percentages stated for water and prepolymers is in each case 100; the auxiliaries and additives are extra in different amounts depending on the intended use. The radiation-curable film-forming prepolymers which are in dispersion, and often also in solution, in water are monofunctional or polyfunctional ethylenically unsaturated prepolymers which are known per se for aqueous prepolymer dispersions, can be initiated by means of free radicals, and have a polymerizable double bond content of, for example, from 0.01 to 1.0 mol per 100 g of prepolymer and also have an average molecular weight of, for example, at least 400, especially from 500 to 10000. Depending on the intended application, however, prepolymers with higher molecular weights may also be suitable. Use is made, for example, of polyesters containing polymerizable C-C double bonds and having an acid number of not more than 10, polyethers containing polymerizable C-C double bonds, hydroxyl-group-containing reaction products of a polyepoxide containing at least two epoxide groups per molecule with at least one α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, polyurethane (meth)acrylates, and also acrylic copolymers containing cc,β-ethylenically unsaturated acrylic radicals, as described, for example, in EP 012339. Mixtures of these prepolymers can likewise be used. Examples of further suitable prepolymers include the polymerizable prepolymers described in EP 033 896, which are thioether adducts of polymerizable prepolymers having an average molecular weight of at least 600, a carboxyl group content of from 0.2 to 15% and a polymerizable C-C double bond content of from 0.01 to 0.8 mol per 100 g of prepolymer. Other suitable aqueous dispersions based on specific alkyl (meth)acrylate polymers are described in EP 041 125; suitable water-dispersible, radiation-curable prepolymers of urethane acrylates are given, for example, in DE 2936039. As further additives, these radiation-curable aqueous prepolymer dispersions may comprise dispersing aids, emulsif iers, antioxidants, light stabilizers, dyes, pigments, fillers, e.g. talc, gypsum, silica, rutile, carbon black, zinc oxide, iron oxides, reaction accelerators, flow agents, lubricants, wetting agents, thickeners, matting agents, antifoams, and other auxiliaries customary in coatings technology. Suitable dispersing aids include water-soluble organic compounds of high molecular weight containing polar groups, such as polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinylpyrrolidone or cellulose ethers. Emulsifiers that can be used include nonionic, and possibly also ionic, emulsifiers. The compounds of the invention and mixtures thereof may also be used in dual-cure latex compositions as described in the US Patent 5,780,117, wherein "latex" or "latex composition" refers to a dispersion of a water-insoluble polymer which may be prepared by conventional polymerization techniques such as, for example, by emulsion polymerization. The resins, i.e. the polymer in the latex include but are not limited to: addition polymers of at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer; condensation polymers made by the reaction of one or more diisocyanates or polyisocyanates with one or more compounds containing groups with active hydrogens; and polyester resins made by the reaction of one or more alcohols, especially diols or polyols, with polyhydric acids or anhydrides of polybasic acids. Such addition polymers include, for example, those prepared from acrylic ester monomers including methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate; styrene or substituted styrenes; butadiene; vinyl acetate or other vinyl esters; vinyl monomers such as vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, N-vinyl pyrrolidone; and acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile. The condensation polymers include, for example, polyurethanes and polyureas such as those made by the reaction of one or more diisocyanates or polyisocyanates with one or more compounds containing groups with active hydrogens such as, for example, polyester, polycarbonate, or polyether di- or poly-ols, monomeric alcohols, diols or polyols, primary or secondary amines or hydrazine compounds, mercaptans, or compounds containing enolic hydrogens such as acetoacetate groups; likewise included are polyester resins made by the reaction of one or more alcohols, especially diols or polyols, with polyhydric acids or anhydrides of polybasic acids, such as, for instance, reaction products of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, the isomeric butanediols or hexanediols, glycerol, neopentylglycol, allyl alcohol, trimethylolpropane, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, or polyether oligomers made by the condensation of one or more of these alcohols, with acids or acid anhydrides such as adipic acid, maleic acid, maleic anhydride, phthalic acid, phthalic anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic acid, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, or natural oil fatty acids such as linseed oil fatty acids, tall oil fatty acids, soybean oil fatty acids, or abietic acid. Polyester resins or their precursors may also be made by using transesterification reaction methods well known in the art for the production of alkyd polyesters. Dispersions of these resins may be in the form of single or multi-staged particles. Multi- staged particles will comprise at least two mutually incompatible copolymers having any of a number of morphological configurations-for example: core/shell; core/shell particles with shell stages incompletely encapsulating the core; core/shell particles with a multiplicity of cores, interpenetrating network particles; and the like, where the greater portion of the surface area of the particles will be occupied by at least one outer stage, and the interior of the particle will be occupied by at least one inner stage. For addition polymers anionic stabilization may be conferred through the copolymerization of low levels of ethylenically-unsaturated acid monomers (e.g., 0.1-7%, by weight, based on the weight of the addition polymer). Examples of ethylenically unsaturated acid monomers include but are not limited to those of: acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, itaconic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, monomethyl itaconate, monomethyl fumarate, maleic anhydride, 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid, sodium vinyl sulfonate, and phosphoethyl methacrylate. For polyurethane condensation polymers anionic stabilization may be conferred through the copolymerization of acid-containing compounds into the polymer backbone, such as, for example, 0.1-15 wt %, based on the weight of the polyurethane polymer, of dimethylolpropionic acid or of its sulfonic acid analogue. For polyester condensation polymers anionic stabilization may be conferred through the use of a molar excess of acid functional groups during the polymerization of the resin, such that the resin has an acid equivalent weight between about 600 and 20 000 (for water-reducible resins, preferably between about 900 and 1400). The polymers are rendered radiation-curable through the incorporation of ethylenically unsaturated groups, which may either be directly incorporated into the polymer backbone during its manufacture, or attached to the polymer backbone at some subsequent point. Depending on the particular use, the resins will generally be supplied as aqueous dispersions at solids levels between about 5 wt % and 70 wt %, or in water-reducible form (with or without a cosolvent) at solids levels between about 50 wt % and 100 wt %; The level of solids preferred for coatings applications depends upon the requirements of the particular application. For those applications where a low solids coating is preferred, it is preferred to use formulations between 5 wt % and 60 wt % of polymer solids, most preferably between about 20 wt % and 50 wt %. High solids coatings are preferably formulated at solids levels in excess of 60%, most preferably between 80 and 100 wt %. The compounds of the invention and mixtures thereof may also be used as free-radical photoinitiators or photoinitiating systems for radiation-curable powder coating compositions. The powder coating compositions may be based on solid resins and monomers containing reactive double bonds, such as maleates, vinyl ethers, acrylates, acrylamides and mixtures thereof. A free-radically UV-curable powder coating composition can be formulated by mixing unsaturated polyester resins with solid acrylamides (e.g. methylacrylamidogiycolate methyl ester) and a free-radical photoinitiator of the invention, as described for example in the paper "Radiation Curing of Powder Coating", Conference Proceedings, Radtech Europe 1993 by M. Wittig and Th. Gohmann. Free-radically UV-curable powder coating compositions can also be formulated by mixing unsaturated polyester resins with solid acrylates, methacrylates or vinyl ethers and a photoinitiator (or photoinitiator mixture) of the invention. The powder coating compositions may also include binders, as described for example in DE 4228514 and EP 636669. The powder coating formulations described in EP 636 669 contain, for example, a) an unsaturated resin from the group of the (semi)crystalline or amorphous unsaturated polyesters, unsaturated polyacrylates or mixtures thereof with unsaturated polyesters, particular preference being given to those derived from maleic acid or fumaric acid; b) an oligomeric or polymeric crosslinking agent containing vinyl ether-functional, vinyl ester-functional or (meth)acrylate-functional groups, particular preference being given to vinyl ether oligomers, such as divinyl ether-functionalized urethanes; c) the photoinitiator. The UV-curable powder coating compositions may also comprise white or coloured pigments. For example, preferably rutile titanium dioxide may be used in concentrations of up to 50% by weight in order to give a cured powder coating possessing good hiding power. The technique normally involves applying the powder to the substrate, such as metal or wood, by electrostatic or tribostatic spraying, melting the powder by heating and, after a smooth film has formed, radiation-curing the coating with ultraviolet and/or visible light, for example using medium-pressure mercury lamps, metal halide lamps or xenon lamps. A particular advantage of the radiation-curable powder coating compositions over their thermally curable counterparts is that the flow time after melting of the powder particles can be selectively extended in order to ensure the formation of a smooth, high-gloss coating. Unlike thermally curable systems, radiation-curable powder coating compositions can be so formulated, without the unwanted effect of a shortened lifetime, that they melt at relatively low temperatures. For this reason they are also suitable as coatings for heat-sensitive substrates, such as wood or plastics. Where the powder coating compositions are to be applied to non-heat-sensitive substrates, for example metals (vehicle coatings), however, it is also possible to provide dual-cure powder coating formulations with the photoinitiators of the invention. Such formulations are known to the person skilled in the art; they are cured both thermally and by means of UV. Formulations of this kind may be found, for example, in US 5 922473. Besides the photoinitiators of the invention, the powder coating formulations may also comprise UV absorbers. Appropriate examples are listed hereinbelow. The photopolymerizable mixtures can also contain various additives (D) in addition to the photoinitiator. Examples thereof are thermal inhibitors, which are intended to prevent premature polymerization, e.g. 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-hydroxypiperidin-1-oxyl (4-hydroxy- TEMPO) and derivatives thereof, e.g. bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl-4-yl)- decanedioate or polyalkyl-piperidin-N-oxyl free radicals, 3-arylbenzofuran-2-one and derivatives thereof, e.g. 5,7-di-tert-butyl-3-phenyl-3H-benzofuran-2-one (as described, for example, in PCT publication WO 01/42313), hydroquinone, hydroquinone derivatives, p-methoxyphenol, β-naphthol and sterically hindered phenols, e.g. 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-p-cresol. In order to increase dark-storage stability it is possible to use, for example, copper compounds, such as copper naphthenate, stearate or octoate, phosphorus compounds, for example triphenylphosphine, tributylphosphine, triethyl phosphite, triphenyl phosphite or tri- benzyl phosphite, quaternary ammonium compounds, e.g. tetramethylammonium chloride or trimethylbenzylammonium chloride, or hydroxylamine derivatives, e.g. N-diethylhydroxyl- amine. For the purpose of excluding atmospheric oxygen during polymerization it is possible to add paraffin or similar wax-like substances which, being insoluble in the polymer, migrate to the surface at the beginning of the polymerization and form a transparent surface layer which prevents air from entering. Equally possible is the application of a layer that is impermeable to oxygen. As light stabilizers it is possible to add UV absorbers, e.g. those of the hydroxyphenylbenzotriazole, hydroxyphenylbenzophenone, oxalic acid amide or hydroxyphenyl-s-triazine type. Such compounds can be used on their own or in the form of mixtures, with or without the use of sterically hindered amines (HALS).

Furthermore, it is possible to use additives customary in the art, such as antistatics, flow improvers and adhesion promoters. The photoinitiators of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id can also act as flow improvers, since they are oriented towards the surface and also influence the surface properties through the group A or A^ Further flow improvers customary in the art may also be added. Examples include siloxane compounds and fluorohydrocarbon compounds and polyacrylates widely available on the market. The invention relates also to the use of compounds of formulae la, lb, Ic and Id as flow improvers, optionally in combination with further customary flow improvers. DIN 55945 defines levelling as "the more or less pronounced capacity of a still-liquid coating itself to compensate the unevennesses which arise in the course of its application." (cf. J. Bieleman, Lackadditive [Additives for Coatings], VCH Weinheim 1998, chapter 6). The levelling of a coating composition depends greatly on its flow behaviour and on its surface tension. Flow improvers are substances that, by reducing the viscosity and/or surface tension, help wet coatings to become films that flow out evenly. In the case of powder coating compositions, flow improvers also lower the melt viscosity and the glass transition temperature and have an additional degassing effect. Flow improvers are used to eliminate levelling defects or surface defects which detract from the overall appearance of the coating. Levelling defects or surface defects include the orange peel effect, formation of structures, cratering, fisheyes, sensitivity to draughts, substrate wetting problems, brush marks, runs, bittiness, pinholes, etc. The use of the compounds of the invention as flow improvers makes it possible to lower the surface tension. The surface tension can be calculated by determining the marginal angle of a drop of liquid on a surface (contact angle measurement). In order to accelerate the photopolymerization, there may be added as further additives (D) amines, especially tertiary amines, for example tributylamine, triethanolamine, p-dimethyl- aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester, Michler's ketone, N-methyl-diethanolamine, N-dimethyl- ethanolamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-methyimorpholine, diazabicyclooctane (triethylene- diamine), 18-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU), 1 ,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and salts thereof. Further examples include quaternary ammonium salts, for example trimethylbenzylammonium chloride. It is also possible to add masked or surface-active masked amines; such masked amines are described, for example, in EP 764 698 and EP 747454. The action of the amines can be enhanced by the addition of aromatic ketones of the benzophenone type. Amines suitable for use as oxygen capture agents are, for example, substituted N,N-dialkylanilines, as described in EP 339841. Further accelerators, co-initiators and auto-oxidizers are thiols, thioethers, disulfides and phosphines, as described e.g. in EP 438 123 and GB 2 180358. It is also possible to add chain transfer reagents customary in the art to the compositions of the invention. Examples are mercaptans, amines and benzothiazole. The photopolymerization may furthermore be accelerated by adding photosensitizers as further additives (D), which shift or broaden the spectral sensitivity. These photosensitizers are, in particular, aromatic carbonyl compounds such as benzophenone derivatives, thioxanthone derivatives, and also especially isopropylthioxanthone, anthraquinone derivatives and 3-acyIcoumarin derivatives, terphenyls, styryl ketones, and also 3- (aroylmethylene)thiazolines, camphorquinone, and also eosine dyes, rhodamine dyes and erythrosine dyes. The amines indicated above, for example, may also be considered as photosensitizers. The curing process, especially of compositions that are pigmented (with titanium dioxide for example), may also be assisted by adding an additional additive (D) which is a component which under thermal conditions forms free radicals, such as an azo compound, for instance 2,2'-azobis(4-methoxy-2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), a triazene, diazo sulfide, pentazadiene or a peroxy compound such as hydroperoxide or peroxycarbonate, e.g. tert-butyl hydroperoxide, as described for example in EP 245 639. As further additives (D), the compositions may also comprise, for example, a photoreducible dye, such as xanthene, benzoxanthene, benzothioxanthene, thiazine, pyronine, porphyrin or acridine dyes, and/or a radiation-cleavable trihalomethyl compound. Similar compositions are described, for example, in EP 445 624. Further common additives (D) - depending on the intended use - include optical brighteners, fillers, e.g. kaolin, talc, barytes, gypsum, chalk or silicate fillers, pigments, dyes, wetting agents or flow improvers. For the hardening of thick and pigmented coatings it is appropriate to add glass microbeads or pulverized glass fibres, as described for example in US 5 013 768. The formulations may also comprise dyes and/or white or coloured pigments. Depending on the intended application, both inorganic and organic pigments may be used. Such additives are known to the person skilled in the art; some examples are titanium dioxide pigments, of, for example, the rutile or anatase type, carbon black, zinc oxide, such as zinc white, iron oxides, such as yellow iron oxide, red iron oxide, chrome yellow, chrome green, nickel titanium yellow, ultramarine blue, cobalt blue, bismuth vanadate, cadmium yellow or cadmium red. Examples of organic pigments are monoazo or bisazo pigments, and also metal complexes thereof, phthalocyanine pigments, poiycyclic pigments, such as perylene, anthraquinone, thioindigo, quinacridone or triphenylmethane pigments, and also diketo- pyrrolopyrrole, isoindolinone, e.g. tetrachloroisoindolinone, isoindoline, dioxazine, benzimidazolone and quinophthalone pigments. The pigments may be used individually or in a mixture in the formulations. The pigments, depending on the intended use, are added to the formulations in the amounts customary in the art, for example in an amount of from 1 to 60% by weight, or from 10 to 30% by weight, based on the total mass. The formulations may, for example, also comprise organic dyes from a very wide variety of classes. Examples are azo dyes, methine dyes, anthraquinone dyes or metal complex dyes. Customary concentrations are, for example, from 0.1 to 20%, especially from 1 to 5%, based on the total mass. The choice of additives is guided by the respective field of application and by the properties desired for that field. The above-described additives (D) are customary in the art and, accordingly, are used in the amounts that are customary in the art. In certain cases it may be of advantage to use mixtures of two or more of the photoinitiators of the formulae la, lb, Ic or/and Id; it is advantageous, for example, to use mixtures obtained directly in the preparation. It is of course also possible to use mixtures with known photoinitiators (E), examples being mixtures with camphorquinone, benzophenone, benzophenone derivatives, acetophenone, acetophenone derivatives, such as oc-hydroxycycloalkyl phenyl ketones or 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenylpropanone, dialkoxyacetophenones, α-hydroxy- or -amino-acetophenones, such as (4-methylthiobenzoyl)-1-methyI-1-morpholinoethane, (4-morpholinobenzoyl)-1-benzyl-1-dimethylaminopropane, 4-aroyl-1 ,3-dioxolanes, benzoin alkyl ethers and benzil ketals, such as benzil dimethyl ketal, phenyl glyoxalates and derivatives thereof, dimeric phenyl glyoxalates, peresters, for example benzophenonetetra- carboxylic peresters as described, for example, in EP 126541, monoacylphosphine oxides, such as (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phenylphosphine oxide, bisacylphosphine oxides, such as bis(2,6-dimethoxybenzoyl)(2,4,4-trimethylpent-1 -yl)phosphine oxide, bis(2,4,6-trimethyl- benzoyl)phenylphosphine oxide or bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)(2,4-dipentyloxyphenyl)- phosphine oxide, trisacylphosphine oxides, halomethyltriazines, e.g. 2-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)- vinyl]-4,6-bistrichloromethyl[1,3,5]triazine, 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4,6-bistrichloromethyl- [1 ,3,5]triazine, 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4,6-bistrichloromethyl[1 ,3,5]triazine, 2-methyl-4,6- bistrichloromethyl[1 ,3,5]triazine, hexaarylbisimidazole/coinitiator systems, e.g. ortho-chloro- hexaphenylbisimidazole together with 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, ferrocenium compounds or titanocenes, such as dicyclopentadienyl bis(2,6-difluoro-3-pyrrolophenyl)titanium, borate photoinitiators or o-acyloxime photoinitiators, as described, for example, in GB 2339571. Where the photoinitiators of the invention are employed in hybrid systems, i.e. systems which can be cured both free-radically and cationically, use is made, in addition to the free- radical curing agents of formula I and any further free-radical curing agents, of cationic photoinitiators, such as benzoyl peroxide (other suitable peroxides are described in US 4950581, column 19, lines 17-25), or aromatic sulfonium, phosphonium or iodonium salts, as described, for example, in US 4950581, column 18, line 60 to column 19, line 10. The photopolymerizable compositions contain the photoinitiator advantageously in an amount of from 0.05 to 15% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 5% by weight, based on the composition. The stated amount of photoinitiator is based on the sum of all of the photoinitiators added, if mixtures thereof are used, i.e. both on the photoinitiator (B) and on the photoinitiators (B) + (E). The photopolymerizable compositions can be used for a variety of purposes: for example, as a printing ink, as a clear lacquer, as a white paint, as a chromatically pigmented paint, for example for wood or metal, as powder coating compositions, as coating compositions for, inter alia, paper, wood, metal or plastics, as a daylight-curable coating for the marking of buildings and roads, for photographic reproduction techniques, for holographic recording materials, for image recording techniques or for producing printing plates which can be developed with organic solvents or using aqueous alkalis, for producing masks for screen printing, as dental filling compounds, as adhesives, as pressure-sensitive adhesives, as laminating resins, as etch resists or permanent resists, both liquid and in the form of dry films, as photostructurable dielectrics, and as solder resists for electronic circuits, as resists for producing colour filters for any type of screen, or for producing structures in the production process of plasma displays and electroluminescent displays, for the production of optical switches, optical lattices (interference grids), for the production of three-dimensional articles by mass curing (UV curing in transparent moulds) or by the stereolithography process, as described, for example, in US 4575 330, for producing composite materials (e.g. styrene polyesters which may, where appropriate, contain glass fibres and/or other fibres and other auxiliaries), and of fine layers (gel coats) and high-film-build compositions, for the coating or sealing of electronic components, or as coatings for optical fibres. The compositions are suitable, furthermore, for the production of optical lenses, e.g. contact lenses or Fresnel lenses, and also for producing medical instruments, aids or implants. The compositions may also be used to produce gels having thermotropic properties, as described, for example, in DE 19700 064 and EP 678534. The compounds of the formulae la, lb, Ic and Id may additionally be used as initiators for emulsion, bead or suspension polymerization or as initiators in a polymerization for the fixing of states of order of liquid-crystalline monomers and oligomers, or as initiators for the fixing of dyes on organic materials. The photocurable compositions of the invention are suitable, for example, as coating materials for substrates of all kinds, e.g. wood, textiles, paper, ceramics, glass, plastics, such as polyesters, polyethylene terephthalate, polyolefins or cellulose acetate, especially in the form of films, and also metals, such as Al, Cu, Ni, Fe, Zn, Mg or Co and GaAs, Si or SiO 2 , to which a protective coat, or - by imagewise exposure - an image, is to be applied. The photoinitiators according to present invention are also suitable for use in compositions as coatings for optical fibers. In general, optical fibers are coated with protective coats directly after their production. The fiber of glass is drawn and then one or more coatings are applied to the glass string. Usually, one, two or three coats are applied, the top coating, for example, is colored ("ink layer or ink coating"). Further, several thus coated optical fibers may be put together to a bundle and be coated all together, i.e. cabling of the fibers. The compositions according to the present invention in general are suitable for any of these coatings, which have to exhibit good softness over a broad temperature range, good tensile strength and toughness and rapid UV-curing characteristics. Each of the coats, inner primary (usually a soft coating), outer primary or secondary (usually a harder coating than the inner coating), tertiary or the cabling coat, may comprise at least one radiation-curable oligomer, at least one radiation curable monomer diluent, at least one photoinitiator, and additives. In general all radiation curable oligomers are suitable. Preferred are oligomers with a molecular weight of at least 500, for example 500-10'OOO, 700-10'OOO, 1O00-8O00 or 1O00- 7'000, in particular urethane oligomers, containing at least one unsaturated group. Preferably the radiation curable oligomer has two terminal functional groups. The coat may contain not only one specific oligomer, but also mixtures of different oligomers. The preparation of suitable oligomers is known to the person skilled in the art and for example published in US 6,136,880, incorporated herein by reference. The oligomers are, for example, prepared by reacting an oligomer diol, preferably a diol having 2-10 polyoxaalkylene groups, with a diisocyanate or a polyisocyanate and a hydroxy-functional ethylenically unsaturated monomer, e.g. hydroxyalkyl(meth)acrylate. Specific examples of each of the components named above, as well as suitable ratios of these components are given in US 6,136,880, incorporated herein by reference. The radiation curable monomer can be used in a manner to control the viscosity of the coating formulation. Accordingly, a low viscosity monomer with at least one functional group capable of photoinitiated polymerization is employed. The amount for example is chosen to adjust the viscosity in a range from 1'000 to 10O00 mPas, i.e. usually for example from 10- 90, or 10-80 wt% are used. The functional group of the monomer diluent preferably is of the same kind than the one of the oligomer component, for example ah acrylate or vinyl ether function and a higher alkyl or polyether moiety. Examples of monomer diluents suitable for coating compositions for optical fibers are published in US 6,136,880, col. 12, line 11ff., incorporated herein by reference. In primary coatings preferably monomers having an acrylate or vinyl ether functionality and a polyether moiety of 4 to 20 C atoms is used. Specific examples are given in the US patent incorporated by reference and cited above. The composition may also comprise a poly(siloxane) as described in US 5,595,820 to improve the adhesive properties of the formulation on the optical fiber glass substrate. The coating composition usually also comprises further additives, e.g. antioxidants, light stabilizers, UV absorbers such as for example given in the list above in particular RTM IRGANOX 1035, 1010, 1076, 1222, RTM TINUVIN P, 234, 320, 326, 327, 328, 329, 213, 292, 144, 622LD (all provided by Ciba Specialty Chemicals), RTM ANTIGENE P, 3C, FR, GA- 80, RTM SUMISORB TM-061 (provided by Sumitomo Chemical Industries Co.), RTM SEESORB 102, 103, 501, 202, 712, 704 (provided by Sypro Chemical Co., Ltd.), RTM SANOL LS770 (provided by Sankyo Co. Ltd.) to prevent the coloring of the coat, in particular during the processing, and to improve the stability of the cured coat. Particularly interesting are stabilizer combinations of hindered piperidine derivatives (HALS) and hindered phenol compounds, e.g. a combination of IRGANOX 1035 and TINUVIN 292, for example in a ratio of 1:1. Further, additives are for example wetting agents and other additives having an effect on the rheology properties of the coating. Also amines, for example diethylamine, can be added. Other examples for additives for compositions for the coating of optical fibers are silane coupling agents, e.g. γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, γ- methacryloxypropyl-trimethoxysilane, SH6062, SH6030 (provided by Toray-Dow Corning Silcone Co., Ltd.), KBE 903, KBE 603, KBE 403 (provided by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) In order to prevent coloring of the coatings the compositions may also comprise fluorescent additives or optical brighteners, as, for example, RTM UV1TEX OB, provided by Ciba Specialty Chemicals. The photoinitiators according to the present application in coating compositions for optical fibers can be admixed with one or more other known photoinitiators. These are in particular monoacylphosphine oxides, such as diphenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl phosphine oxide; bisacylphosphine oxides, such as bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)-phenyl phosphine oxide ( RTM IRGACURE 819), bis(2,6-dimethoxybenzoyl)-2,4,4-trimethylpentyl phosphine oxide; - hydroxyketones, such as 1 -hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone ( R ™IRGACURE 184), 2- hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanone ( R ™DAROCUR 1173), 2-hydroxy-1-[4-(2-hydroxy- ethoxy)phenyl]-2-methyl-1-propanone ( RTM IRGACURE 2959); α-aminoketones, such as 2- methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-(4-morpholinyl)-1-propanone ( RTM IRGACURE 907), 2- benzyI-2-(dimethylamino)-1-[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-1-butanone ( R ™IRGACURE 369); benzophenones, such as benzophenone, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzophenone, 4-methylbenzo- phenone, 2-methylbenzophenone, 2-methoxycarbonylbenzophenone, 4,4'-bis(chloromethyl)- benzophenone, 4-chlorobenzophenone, 4-phenylbenzophenone, 4,4'-bis(dimethyl- amino)benzophenone, 4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone, methyl 2-benzoylbenzoate, 3,3'- dimethyI-4-methoxybenzophenone, 4-(4-methylphenylthio)benzophenone and also ketal compounds, for example 2,2-dimethoxy-1 ,2-diphenyl-ethanone ( RTM IRGACURE 651); monomeric or dimeric phenylglyoxalic acid esters, such as for example methyl phenylglyoxalic acid ester or 1 ,2-(benzoylcarboxy)ethane. In particular suitable are admixtures with mono- or bisacylphosphine oxides and/or α-hydroxy ketones. It is evident that the formulations, in order to enhance the properties of the photoinitiators may also comprise sensitizer compounds, for example amines. The coatings are either applied "wet on dry" or "wet on wet". In the first case after the application of the primary coat a curing step by irradiation with UV light is carried out prior to the application of the second coat. In the second case both coatings are applied and cured together by irradiation with UV light. The curing with UV irradiation in this application usually takes place in a nitrogen atmosphere. In general all radiation sources usually employed in the photocuring technique can be used for the curing of optical fiber coatings. These are, for example the radiation sources listed below Generally, mercury medium pressure lamps or/and Fusion D lamps are used. Also flash lights are suitable. It is evident that the emission of the lamps is matched with the absorption of the photoinitiator or photoinitiator mixture which is used. The optical fiber coating compositions may also be cured by irradiation with an electron beam, in particular with low power electron beams, as is, for example disclosed in WO 98/41484. In order to distinguish different fibers in an assembly, the fibers may be covered with a third colored coating ("ink coating"). The compositions used for this coating in addition to the polymerizable components and the photoinitiator comprise a pigment or dye. Examples for pigments suitable for optical fiber coatings are inorganic pigments, such as for example titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, zinc sulfide, barium sulfate, aluminium silicate, calcium silicate, carbon black, black iron oxide, copper chromite black, iron oxides, chromium oxide greens, iron blue, chrome green, violet (e.g. manganese violet, cobalt phosphate, CoLiPO 4 ), lead chromates, lead molybdates, cadmium titanate and pearlescent and metallic pigments, as well as organic pigments, such as monoazo pigments, di-azo pigments, di-azo condensation pigments, quinacridone pigments, dioxazine violet, vat pigments, perylene pigments, thioindigo pigments, phthalocyanine pigments and tetrachloroisoindolinones. Examples for suitable pigments are carbon black for a black coating, titanium dioxide for a white coating, diarylide yellow or diazo based pigments for yellow coatings, phthalocyanine blue, and other phthalocyanines for blue coatings, anthraquinone red, naphthole red, monazo based pigments, quinacridone pigments, anthraquinone and perylenes for red coatings, phthalocyanine green and nitroso based pigments for green coatings, monazo and diazo based pigments, quinacridone pigments, anthraquinones and perylenes for orange coatings, and quinacridone violet, basic dye pigments and carbazole dioxazine based pigments for violet coatings. The person skilled in the art is well aware of formulating and combining suitable further pigments if even more colored coatings, such as aqua, brown, gray, pink etc. are needed. The mean particle size of the pigments usually is about 1 μm or less. The size of commercial pigments can be reduced by milling, if necessary. The pigments for example, can be added to the formulation in the form of a dispersion in order to simplify the mixing with the other ingredients of the formulation. The pigments are, for example dispersed in a low viscosity liquid, e.g. a reactive diluent. Preferred is the use of organic pigments. Suitable amounts for pigment in the ink coating are for example 1-20, 1-15, preferably 1-10 wt%. The ink coating in general also comprises a lubricant to provide improved break-out properties of the single coated optical fiber from the matrix. Examples of such lubricants are silicones, fluorocarbon oils or resins and the like, preferably a silicone oil or a functionalized silicone compound, e.g. silicone diacrylate is used. The compositions according to the present invention are further suitable as a matrix material for an assembly of coated optical fibers. That is, several of the primary, secondary (and in some cases tertiary) coated fibers, for example, in the third coat being differentiated by different colors, are assembled in a matrix. The coating of an assembly preferably besides the additives given above also contains a release agent to allow for easy access to the individual fibers during the installation of the optical fiber cables. I.e. Examples for such release agents are teflon, silicones, silicon acrylates, fluoro-carbon oils or resins and the like. The release agents suitably are added in an amount of 0.5-20 wt%. Examples of ink coatings and matrix materials for coated optical.fibers are given in US patents 6,197,422, 6,130,980 and EP 614099, incorporated herein by reference. The substrates can be coated by applying a liquid composition, a solution or suspension to the substrate. The choice of solvent and the concentration are guided primarily by the nature of the composition and by the coating technique. The solvent should be inert, i.e. it should not enter into any chemical reaction with the components and it should be able to be removed again in the course of drying after coating. Examples of suitable solvents are ketones, ethers and esters, such as methyl ethyl ketone, isobutyl methyl ketone, cyclo- pentanone, cyclohexanone, N-methylpyrrolidone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, 2-methoxy- ethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 1 ,2-dimethoxyethane, ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate and ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate. The formulation is applied uniformly to a substrate by means of known coating techniques, for example by spincoating, dipping, knife coating, curtain coating techniques, brush application, spraying, especially by electrostatic spraying, and reverse roll coating, and also by electrophoretic deposition. It is also possible to apply the photosensitive layer to a temporary flexible support and then, by layer transfer via lamination, to the final substrate. Examples of methods of application are described in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5 th edition, Vol. A18, pp. 491-500. The application amount (coat thickness) and nature of the substrate (coat support) are dependent on the desired field of application. The dry film thickness range generally embraces values from about 0.1 μm to more than 100 μm, preferably from 0.02 to 2 cm. A further field of use of photocuring is that of metal coating, as in the coating of metal sheets and tubes, cans or bottle closures, for example, and also photocuring on plastics coatings, for example PVC-based wall or floor coverings. Examples of the photocuring of paper coatings are the colourless varnishing of labels, record sleeves or book covers. Also preferred is the use of the coating formulation comprising the surface-active photoinitiators as a finishing paint for applications in the automobile industry, especially as a pigmented or unpigmented top coat of the coating, but use for layers beneath the top coat is also possible. The photosensitivity of the compositions of the invention generally ranges from about 200 nm into the IR region. Suitable radiation is present, for example, in sunlight or light from artificial sources. Light sources employed therefore include a large number of a very wide variety of types. Both point sources and arrays (lamp carpets) are suitable. Examples are carbon arc lamps, xenon arc lamps, medium-, high- and low-pressure mercury lamps, possibly doped with metal halides (metal-halogen lamps), microwave-excited metal vapour lamps, excimer lamps, superactinic fluorescent tubes, fluorescent lamps, argon incandescent lamps, flashlights, e.g. high-energy flashlights, photographic floodlamps, light- emitting diodes (LEDs), electron beams and X-rays. The distance between the lamp and the substrate to be exposed may vary, depending on the intended application and the type and output of the lamps, for example between 2 cm and 150 cm. Especially suitable are laser light sources, e.g. excimer lasers, such as Krypton-F lasers for exposure at 248 nm. Lasers in the visible range can also be used. As already mentioned, curing in the process of the invention may take place solely by exposure to electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the composition of the formulation to be cured, however, thermal curing before, during or after irradiation is advantageous. Thermal curing takes place in accordance with methods known to the person skilled in the art. Curing is generally carried out in an oven, e.g. a circulating air oven, on a hotplate, or by irradiation using IR lamps. Curing without auxiliaries at room temperature is likewise possible, depending on the binder system used. The curing temperatures are generally between room temperature and 150°C, e.g. 25-150°C or 50-150°C. In the case of powder coating compositions or "coil coat" compositions, the curing temperatures may also be higher, e.g. up to 350°C. Where the formulation includes thermally curable components (C), it is additionally possible in accordance with the invention to add thermal drying catalysts or curing catalysts to the formulation as additional additives (D). Examples of possible drying catalysts, or thermal curing catalysts, are organic metal compounds, amines or/and phosphines. Organic metal compounds are, for example, metal carboxylates, especially those of the metals Pb, Mn, Co, Zn, Hf, Zr or Cu, or metal chelates, especially those of the metals Hf, Al, Ti or Zr, or organo- metal compounds such as organotin compounds. Examples of metal carboxylates are the stearates of Pb, Mn or Zn, the octoates of Co, Zn or Cu, the naphthenates of Mn and Co or the corresponding linoleates or tallates. Examples of metal chelates are the aluminium, titanium or zirconium chelates of acetylacetone, ethyl acetylacetate, salicylaldehyde, salicylaldoxime, o-hydroxyacetophenone or ethyl trifluoroacetylacetate and the alkoxides of those metals. Examples of organotin compounds are dibutyltin oxide, dibutyltin dilaurate and dibutyltin dioctoate. These amines can also be used as synergistic compounds in purely UV- curable systems. Also suitable are surface-active amines as described in EP-0 764 698 B1. There are described in EP-0 764 698 B1 masked amine compounds that are surface-active in radiation-curable, free-radical-polymerizable compounds and that free amino compounds during irradiation. Examples of amines are especially tertiary amines, for example tributylamine, triethanol- amine, N-methyldiethanolamine, N-dimethylethanolamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-methyi- morpholine and diazabicyclooctane (triethylenediamine) and salts thereof. Further examples include quaternary ammonium salts, for example trimethylbenzylammonium chloride. It is also possible to use phosphines as curing catalyst, for example triphenylphosphine. Suitable catalysts are also described, for example, in J. Bielemann, Lackadditive, Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, Weinheim, 1998, pages 244-247. Examples include carboxylic acids, for example p-toluenesulfonic acid, dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, dinonylnaphthalenesulfonic acid and dinonylnaphthalenedisulfonic acid. Latent or blocked sulfonic acids, for example, can also be used, it being possible for the acid to be blocked ionically or non-ionically. Such catalysts are used in concentrations known to the person skilled in the art and customary in the art. The invention relates also to a process for photopolymerizing non-volatile monomeric, oligomeric or polymeric compounds containing at least one ethylenically unsaturated double bond, which process comprises exposing a composition as described above to electromagnetic radiation ranging from 200 to 600 nm. The invention relates also to the use of the above-described composition and to a process for the production of pigmented and unpigmented surface coatings, powder coatings, fine layers (gel coats), composite materials or glass fibre cable coatings. The invention likewise relates to a coated substrate that is coated on at least one surface with a composition as described above. The Examples which follow illustrate the invention further, without any intention of restricting the invention to the Examples. As in the remainder of the description and in the claims, parts and percentages are by weight unless indicated otherwise. References to alkyl radicals containing more than three carbon atoms without indication of the isomer should be understood in each case as referring to the n-isomers.
