DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. A photocurable coloured composition containing: (a) an olefinically unsaturated, photopolymerisable binder, (b) a pigment or a dye and (c) as photoinitiator, at least one compound of the formula I ##STR43## wherein Ar is a phenyl radical substituted in the 4-position by a group --OR. sup. 9, R. sup. 9 is C. sub. 1 -C. sub. 8 -alkyl, C. sub. 3 -C. sub. 6 -alkenyl, cyclohexyl, benzyl, phenyl, tolyl or one of the groups: --CH. sub. 2 CH. sub. 2 OH, --CH. sub. 2 CH. sub. 2 --OOC--CH. dbd. CH. sub. 2, --CH. sub. 2 --COO(C. sub. 1 -C. sub. 4 -alkyl), --CH. sub. 2 CH. sub. 2 --COO(C. sub. 1 -C. sub. 4 -alkyl), ##STR44## R. sup. 1 and R. sup. 2 are C. sub. 1 -C. sub. 4 -alkyl, or R. sup. 1 and R. sup. 2 together are C. sub. 4 -C. sub. 5 -alkylene, and X and X' are a morpholino radical or a radical of the formula --N(CH. sub. 2 CH. sub. 2 --OCH. sub. 3). sub. 2, or an acid addition salt thereof. 2. A printing ink according to claim 1. 3. A composition according to claim 1, which additionally contains a thioxanthone derivative as a sensitiser. 4. A process for the photochemical curing of coloured compositions containing an olefinically unsaturated, photopolymerisable binder, a pigment and a photoinitiator, by irradiation with shortwave light, which process comprises using a compound of the formula I according to claim 1. 5. A process according to claim 4, wherein the coloured composition is a printing ink. 6. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the photoinitiator is ##STR45## 7. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the photoinitiator is ##STR46## 8. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the photoinitiator is ##STR47## 9. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the photoinitiator is ##STR48##
Description:
The invention relates to photocurable coloured compositions containing an olefinically unsaturated binder, a pigment or a dye and a specific photoinitiator. The photoinitiator is an aromatic-aliphatic ketone which contains, in the aromatic moiety, one or more hydroxyl or ether groups and contains, in the aliphatic moiety, a tertiary
