The Importance of UV Absorbers in Agricultural Films and Textiles
In modern agriculture, plastic films and textiles play an indispensable role in enhancing crop yields and protecting produce. Greenhouse films, mulching films, and protective textiles are constantly exposed to intense sunlight, which contains significant amounts of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This continuous exposure can lead to rapid degradation of these materials, causing them to become brittle, tear easily, and lose their effectiveness prematurely. To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of these agricultural products, the incorporation of UV stabilizers, particularly UV absorbers, is crucial.
UV Absorber UV-328 (CAS: 25973-55-1) is a high-performance UV absorber that offers excellent protection against UV-induced photodegradation. With a peak absorption wavelength of 345nm, it efficiently screens out harmful UV rays, thus preserving the physical and mechanical properties of polymers used in agricultural films and textiles. Its compatibility with common polymers like polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), which are widely used in these applications, makes it an ideal choice. Furthermore, its low volatility and good wash resistance ensure sustained protection throughout the service life of the product, even under challenging environmental conditions.
As a leading manufacturer and supplier in the specialty chemicals sector, we understand the critical need for reliable and effective UV protection in agricultural applications. Our UV Absorber UV-328 is produced to high standards, with a minimum purity of 99%, ensuring consistent performance and preventing unexpected degradation issues. The low volatile matter content (≤0.5%) means that less of the additive is lost during processing, and it remains in the material to provide long-lasting protection. This is particularly important for agricultural films that are expected to withstand months of continuous solar exposure.
For agricultural product manufacturers seeking to buy UV Absorber UV-328, sourcing from a reputable supplier is key to guaranteeing product quality and efficacy. Our competitive pricing for bulk purchases makes UV-328 an economically viable solution for enhancing the durability of your films and textiles. Typically used at concentrations of around 0.1% to 1.0%, it can significantly extend the functional life of agricultural plastics, reducing replacement costs and improving overall efficiency. For enhanced protection, especially in harsh climates, UV-328 can be used in conjunction with other stabilizers like hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS).
We are committed to supporting the agricultural industry with advanced material protection solutions.
