Product Information of Benzil (CAS 134-81-6)


Diphenylethylenedione, also known as dibenzoyl, benzil, biphenyl, diphenyl, has the chemical formula (C6H5CO)2, often abbreviated as (PhCO)2. It belongs to the diketone and is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Under ultraviolet light irradiation, diphenylethylenedione is cleaved into a radical, which initiates cross-linking between the polymer chains, and thus serves as a photoinitiator for curing the polymer.
