An improved process for laser or UV curing of pigmented-binder systems comprising ethylenically unsaturated polymers containing at least about 0.05 weight parts of opacifying pigment per weight part of binder wherein the pigmented-binder system includes from about 0.5% up to about 3% of a halogenated derivative of naphthalene in combination with about 0.1 to 2% aromatic amino carbonyl photosensitizers and from about 0.5% to 2% aromatic ketone or aldehyde photosensitizers. The sensitized binder system is a substantially improved system suitable for curing by ultraviolet or laser energy sources. |
