Abstract

Novel onium borates of an element of Groups 15 to 17 of the Periodic Table, or borates of an organometallic complex of an element of Groups 4 to 10 of the Periodic Table, well suited for the photochemical/electron beam cationic initiation of polymerization/crosslinking, the anionic borate moiety of which having the formula: EQU [BX.sub.a R.sub.b ].sup.- which a and b are integers ranging from 0 to 4 and a+b=4; the symbols X are each a halogen atom when ranges up to 3 and an OH functional group when a ranges up to 2; and the symbols R, which may be identical or different, are each a phenyl radical substituted by at least one element or electron-withdrawing substituent or by at least two halogen atoms, or an aryl radical containing at least two aromatic ring members, or such aryl radical bearing at least one electron-withdrawing substituent.
