Technical Specifications

Industrial Applications

The versatility of UV Absorber UV-1577 allows it to serve as a critical component in various high-performance polymer formulations. Its triazine backbone provides superior light stability compared to traditional benzophenone or benzotriazole absorbers, especially in thick-section applications. Key application areas include:

• Engineering Plastics: Highly effective in polycarbonates, polyesters, and hard polyvinyl chlorides (PVC) where thermal stability is paramount.
• Coatings and Inks: Enhances the weatherability of industrial coatings, automotive finishes, and protective ink layers.
• Styrenic Polymers: Prevents yellowing and mechanical property loss in ABS and polystyrene materials exposed to sunlight.
• Acrylates: Compatible with acrylic systems used in outdoor signage and architectural glazing.

This product acts as a drop-in replacement for similar grade UV stabilizers, offering improved performance benchmarks in terms of volatility resistance and photostability. It is often used in synergy with hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) to provide comprehensive protection against both UV radiation and oxidative degradation.

Storage and Handling

UV Absorber UV-1577 is classified as non-dangerous goods for transport and storage. It is non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-corrosive under normal conditions. To maintain optimal quality, the material should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and moisture. The standard packaging consists of cardboard drums lined with plastic bags, with a net weight of 25kg per drum. Custom packaging solutions are available upon request to meet specific logistical requirements. With proper storage, this UV-absorbing agent exhibits excellent stability over extended periods, ensuring consistent performance batch after batch.
