MPI Chemie UV-1577

MPI Chemie UV-1577 is an ultraviolet light absorber (UVA) of the hydroxyphenyl triazine class exhibiting very low volatility and good compatibility with a variety of polymers, co-additives and resin compositions. UV-1577 allows polycarbonates and polyesters to achieve a higher resistance to weathering than conventional benzotriazole UV absorbers.

Chemical Family: Triazines

Functions: UV Absorber

Synonyms: 2-(2-Hydroxy-4-hexyloxyphenyl)-4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine, 2-(4,6-Diphenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-5-(hexyloxy)phenol, 2-(4,6-Diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl)-5-[(hexyl)oxy]phenol, 2-(4,6-Diphenyl-s-triazin-2-yl)-5-hexyloxyphenol, 2-[4-(Hexyloxy)-2-hydroxyphenyl]-4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine, 2,4-Diphenyl-6-(2-hydroxy-4-hexyloxyphenyl)-s-triazine, 2,4-Diphenyl-6-[2-hydroxy-4-(hexyloxy)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine, 4,6-Diphenyl-2-(4-hexyloxy-2-hydroxyphenyl)-s-triazine, Light stabilizer 1577

    Applications & Uses

    Applications
    • UV-1577 applications include polyalkene terephthalates and naphthalates, linear and branched polycarbonates, modified polyphenylene ether compounds, and various high-performance plastics.
    • The use of UV-1577 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.
    • Its very low tendency to chelate allows UV-1577 formulations in polymers containing catalyst residues.
