Abstract
The spectral distributions of the radiation emitted by the white-light photopolymerization units were measured and were compared with those of a UV light source. The components of short-wavelength radiation were smaller in the former than were those in the latter. The efficiency of the radiation sources for photopolymerization is discussed.Keywords
