The effectiveness of light stabilizers can vary significantly depending on the polymer matrix and the presence of other additives, particularly pigments and carbon black. These components, while essential for aesthetics and performance, can sometimes interfere with the stabilization process. Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS) are renowned for their ability to perform exceptionally well even in challenging formulations, with HALS 622 being a prime example. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. explores why HALS 622 is the preferred choice for pigmented and carbon black systems.

Pigments, used to impart color to plastics, and carbon black, widely used for its UV blocking and reinforcing properties, can sometimes react with or deactivate traditional light stabilizers. This interaction can reduce the stabilizer's efficiency, leading to inadequate UV protection and premature material degradation. This is a critical consideration for manufacturers aiming for durable and aesthetically consistent products.

HALS, particularly HALS 622, offers distinct advantages in these scenarios. HALS 622 is a polymeric Hindered Amine Light Stabilizer characterized by its high molecular weight and low basicity. This low basicity is crucial because it minimizes antagonistic interactions with acidic pigments or other additives that might neutralize the amine groups of the HALS. As a result, HALS 622 can maintain its radical-scavenging activity effectively, even in highly pigmented formulations.

Furthermore, carbon black itself is an excellent UV absorber. When present in a plastic formulation, it significantly enhances the material's resistance to UV degradation. However, to fully leverage the protective capabilities of carbon black and to ensure long-term stability, a complementary light stabilizer is still necessary to combat the residual UV effects and other degradation pathways. HALS 622 works exceptionally well in conjunction with carbon black. Its inherent stability and mechanism of action ensure that it complements, rather than interferes with, the UV absorption provided by carbon black, offering a robust, dual-layer protection system.

The low volatility and minimal migration of HALS 622 also contribute to its suitability for these applications. In systems with high pigment loading or carbon black, the overall formulation can be more demanding. The ability of HALS 622 to remain within the polymer matrix ensures that its protective function is sustained, preventing issues like surface blooming that could otherwise detract from the final product's appearance, especially in colored or black masterbatches.

At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we understand the intricate requirements of polymer stabilization.
