(C±)-Camphorquinone is a chemical compound that functions as a photoinitiator in polymerization reactions. It plays a role in initiating the polymerization of dental resins when exposed to light of a specific wavelength. (±)-Camphorquinone absorbs light energy and undergoes a photochemical reaction, leading to the generation of free radicals. These free radicals then initiate the polymerization process by reacting with the monomers present in the resin. This mechanism of action allows (C±)-Camphorquinone to facilitate the cross-linking of polymer chains, leading to the formation of a solid, cured material. In this way, (C±)-Camphorquinone serves as a key component in the development of dental materials, enabling the fabrication of dental restorations and other related applications.
