Abstract

In a process for the curing of light-sensitive polymeric compositions by irradiation with light of wavelength suited to the polymeric composition it is proposed that the irradiation be carried out with a light intensity increasing continuously or in stepped form. An apparatus for carrying out said process is further proposed in which the raising of the light intensity is controlled during an irradiation procedure by a control unit (13).
