BAPO Photoinitiator Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- BAPO
- Bis(2,4,6-Trimethylbenzoyl)phenylphosphine Oxide
BAPO photoinitiator is a bisacylphosphine oxide curing additive for UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives and resin systems in Malaysia. It is supplied as a powder and selected by cure response, colour and formulation compatibility.
Standard, higher-purity and 3D-printing formulation grades may be requested. The light source, resin chemistry, pigment load and target cure depth should be stated because these factors affect the suitable photoinitiator package.
Typical applications include protective coatings, printing inks, UV adhesives, electronic materials and additive-manufacturing resins. BAPO is a separate product from other photoinitiators such as photoinitiator 184.
Send the exact BAPO identity, required purity, formulation, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed for the selected grade.
- Grade
- standard BAPO grade, high-purity UV-curing grade, 3D-printing formulation grade
- Appearance
- pale yellow to yellow powder

Common questions about BAPO photoinitiator
What is BAPO photoinitiator?
BAPO photoinitiator is bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phenylphosphine oxide, a solid photoinitiator used in UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives and resin systems. It is selected by cure response, colour and compatibility with the formulation.
What is BAPO used for?
BAPO is used in UV-curable coatings, inks, adhesives, protective finishes and some 3D-printing resin systems. The required grade depends on the light source, resin chemistry, pigment load and target cure depth.
Is BAPO the same as photoinitiator 184?
No. BAPO and photoinitiator 184 are separate photoinitiators with different chemical structures and formulation behaviour. Use the exact photoinitiator requested by the resin or coating specification.
Which BAPO grade should I request?
Provide the resin system, light source, colour requirement, cure depth, pigment level and application method. Standard, higher-purity and additive-manufacturing grades can then be considered against the formulation.
What information is needed for a BAPO quote?
Send the full chemical identity, required purity, formulation type, quantity, preferred packing and delivery location. Availability, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.
