Abstract
A photocatalyst system comprising an aromatic ketone photopolymerization activator having a triplet energy in the range of from about 54 kilocalories per mole to about 72 kilocalories per mole and phenanthrenequinone is present in an actinic light polymerizable coating composition containing organic polymerizable material containing a plurality of sites of ethylenic unsaturation and ultraviolet light absorbing hiding pigment. Coatings of the coating composition are polymerized by exposing them to actinic light of a wavelength where absorption by the pigment is substantial and to actinic light of a wavelength where absorption by the pigment is insubstantial.
