Tinuvin® 1600

Tinuvin® 1600 by BASF is 2-hydroxyphenyl-s-triazine derivative. It acts as an ultraviolet light absorber (UVA). It exhibits very low volatility, excellent thermal stability and high extinction coefficient.

It is a light stabilizer allows polycarbonates, polyesters, and acrylics to achieve a higher resistance to weathering than conventional hydroxyphenyl triazine, benzotriazole or cyanoacrylate UV absorbers.
It is indicated in polymer blends & alloys, such as PC/ABS, PC/PBT, PPE/IPS, PPE/PA and copolymers as well as in reinforced, filled and/or flame retarded compounds, which can be transparent, translucent and/or pigmented.
It is particularly suitable for processing and aging conditions where high loadings, very good compatibility, and outstanding durability are required.
It is suitable for thin layers and films in general.
Tinuvin® 1600 is (0.2 – 6 % by weight) can be readily incorporated into the polymer by using conventional techniques, e. g. powder, solution, or melt blending.
