Sumario:This article presents, for the first time, the kinetics and the general features of a photopolymerization system (under visible light), copper-complex/Iodonium/triethylamine/gold-chloride (orA/B/N/G), with initial concentrations of A<sub>0</sub>, B<sub>0</sub>, N<sub>0</sub> and G<sub>0</sub>, based on the proposed mechanism of Tar et al. Analytic formulas were developed to explore the new features, including: (i) both free radical photopolymerization (FRP) efficacy and the production of nanogold (NG), which are proportional to the relative concentration ratios of (A<sub>0</sub> + B<sub>0</sub> + N<sub>0</sub>)/G<sub>0</sub> and may be optimized for maximum efficacy; (ii) the two competing procedures of NG production and the efficacy of FRP, which can be tailored for an optimal system with nanogold in the polymer matrix; (iii) the FRP efficacy, which is contributed by three components given by the excited state of copper complex (T), and the radicals (R and S) produced by iodonium and amine, respectively; (iv) NG production, which is contributed by the coupling of T and radical (S) with gold ion; and (v) NG production, which has a transient state proportional to the light intensity and the concentration ratio A<sub>0</sub>/G<sub>0</sub>) + (N<sub>0</sub>/(K’M<sub>0</sub>), but also a steady-state independent of the light intensity.
