In the quest for durable and long-lasting materials, the role of UV protection is undeniable. Manufacturers across industries, from textiles to plastics and coatings, rely on UV absorbers to safeguard their products against the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is at the forefront of providing advanced UV protection solutions, and we believe it's crucial to understand the technological landscape. This article delves into why UV Absorber UV-366 distinguishes itself from conventional UV absorber technologies.

The Evolution of UV Absorbers
Historically, UV protection for polymers and textiles has employed various chemical classes, including benzophenones and earlier generations of benzotriazoles. While these have served their purpose, advancements in material science and performance requirements have driven the development of more sophisticated UV absorbers.

Key UV Absorber Classes and Their Characteristics:

  • Benzophenones: These were among the earliest widely used UV absorbers. They offer good UV absorption but can sometimes suffer from lower photostability and potential for yellowing in certain polymer systems.
  • Benzotriazoles: This class offers broader UV absorption and better photostability than benzophenones. However, performance varies significantly based on their specific chemical structure.
  • Triazines: Certain triazine derivatives also provide effective UV protection, often with good thermal stability.

The Superiority of UV Absorber UV-366
UV Absorber UV-366 (CAS 169198-72-5), a modern benzotriazole UV absorber, has been engineered to overcome the limitations of older technologies. Its advantages are clear:

  1. Unmatched UV Absorption Efficiency: Scientific data, including its UV molar extinction coefficient, shows that UV-366 is significantly more efficient than both benzophenone and older benzotriazole UV absorbers. For manufacturers, this means achieving higher levels of protection with potentially lower loading levels, optimizing cost-effectiveness.
  2. Exceptional Photostability and Durability: UV-366 is characterized by its high molecular weight, non-volatility, and resistance to extraction. This ensures that the UV protection remains effective over extended periods and under challenging environmental conditions, unlike less stable alternatives.
  3. Improved Fiber Adsorption: For textile applications, UV-366 demonstrates stronger adsorption onto fibers, especially microfibers and polyester fibers, leading to more durable and consistent UV protection in fabrics.
  4. Minimal Impact on Product Aesthetics: As a light yellow powder, it contributes minimally to color changes in polymers and textiles, preserving the original look and feel of the product.
