Uv-curable ethylene scavenging compositions

Abstract

The invention relates to a UV-curable composition comprising: (i) a silicone comprising epoxy groups; (ii) an iodonium salt; and (iii) a metal-doped zeolite. A kit, from which the UV curable composition may be prepared and which also forms part of the invention, comprises: a first part comprising component (iii) dispersed in component (ii), and a second part comprising component (ii). The invention also relates to a method of preparing a material for the adsorption of ethylene by applying the UV curable composition onto a substrate and curing the material with UV light. The resulting cured materials also form part of the invention.
