Questions And Answer

• Characterization

  UV Absorber 234 (2-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4,6-bis(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenol) is a high molecular weight ultraviolet light absorber (UVA) of the hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole class, imparting excellent light stability to a variety of polymers. ;

• Physical Properties

  ;

• Applications

  UV Absorber 234 (2-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4,6-bis(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenol) is highly effective for polymers processed at high temperatures such as polycarbonates, polyalkylene terephthalates, polyacetals, polyamides, polyphenylene sulfide, polyphenylene oxide, aromatic copolymers, thermoplastic polyurethane and polyurethane fibers, as well as for polyvinylchloride, styrene homo- and copolymers. Applications include molded articles, films, sheets and fibers.;

• Features/benefits

  UV Absorber 234 features low volatility, exceptional light absorbing characteristics and good compatibility in various substrates. This makes the product particularly suitable for applications characterized by high surface area, such as films and fibers.;

• Guidelines for use

  Use levels of UV Absorber 234 (2-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4,6-bis(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenol) range between 0.15 and 0.60 %, depending on substrate and performance requirements of the final application. UV Absorber 234can be used alone or in combination with other functional additives such as antioxidants (hindered phenols, phosphites) and HALS light stabilizers, where often a synergistic performance is observed. Extensive performance data of UV Absorber 234 alone or in combination with other additives are available in many of the substrates listed above.;
