Abstract

A curable composition contains a polymerizable compound and a polymerization initiator containing pheylbis(2,4,6-trimethyl benzoyl)phosphine oxide and diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide in a mass ratio of pheylbis(2,4,6-trimethyl benzoyl)phosphine oxide:diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide from 1:6 to 1:160, wherein supernatant obtained after the curable composition is centrifuged for 30 minutes at 70,000 rotation per minute has an absorbance of 0.02 or less at a wavelength of 700 nm.

Claims (23)

1. A curable composition, comprising:

a polymerizable compound; and

a polymerization initiator comprising phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethyl benzoyl)phosphine oxide and diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide in a mass ratio of phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethyl benzoyl)phosphine oxide:diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide from 1:6 to 1:160,

wherein supernatant obtained after the curable composition is centrifuged for 30 minutes at 70,000 rotation per minute has an absorbance of 0.02 or less at a wavelength of 700 nm.

2. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide contains impurities having a retention time of 2.8 minutes and 5.4 minutes as measured by a high performance liquid chromatography.

3. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide accounts for 0.1 to 2 percent by mass in the curable composition.

4. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymerizable compound comprises at least one of a monofunctional monomer and a polyfunctional monomer.

5. The curable compound according to claim 1 , wherein the polymerizable compound comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of (meth)acryloylmorpholine, cyclic trimethylolpropane formal (meth)acrylate, and phenoxyethyl (meth)acrylate in an amount of 40 percent by mass or more.

6. The curable composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a polymerizable oligomer having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond.

7. The curable composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a coloring material.

8. The curable composition according to claim 1 , being an active energy ray curable composition.

9. The curable composition according to claim 1 , for inkjet.

10. An accommodating unit, comprising:

a container accommodating the curable composition of claim 1 .

11. A device for forming a two or three dimensional image, comprising:

an accommodating unit accommodating the curable composition of claim 1 ;

an application device configured to apply the curable composition; and

a curing device configured to cure the curable composition.

12. The device according to claim 11 , wherein the curing device includes a light-emitting diode.

13. A method of forming a two or three dimensional image, comprising: applying the curable composition of claim 1 ; and

curing the curable composition.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the curing includes emitting light using a light-emitting diode light source.

15. Cured matter, formed by using the curable composition of claim 1 .
