Products in Flexible Packaging Adhesives: Stabilizer

The Hanson Group UV-944 is a low-dust, polymeric hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) who provides superb light stability to many polymers and, in addition, gives long-term heat stability to polymers by radical trapping mechanism similar to that of hinder phenol. HXA UV-944’s effectiveness combined with its low volatility and low extractability makes itself the most widely used HALS commercially available.

The Hanson Group UV-770 acts as hindered amine light stabilizer. Bis(2,2,6,6,-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) decanedioate. It provides outstanding light stability to many polymers and, in addition, gives long-term heat stability to polymers by radical trapping mechanism similar to that of hinder phenol. HXA UV-770 effectiveness is independent of the polymer’s thickness, in contrast to UV absorbers. It can be incorporated in monomer before polymerization, often with improvement of resin quality.

The Hanson Group UV-622 is a low-dust, polymeric hindered amine light stabilizer who provides outstanding light stability to many polymers and, in addition, gives long-term heat stability to polymers by radical trapping mechanism similar to that of hinder phenol. UV-622 produces virtually no effect on initial substrate color.

Chiguard® UV-234 belongs to the family of substituted benzotriazoles which protect against ultraviolet radiation. Compared to other Chitec’s UV absorbers, Chiguard® 234 has lowest volatility which makes it especially useful for those applications involving high temperature processing.
