Tinuvin 384-2 Benzenepropanoic acid, 3-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-5-(1,1-di-methylethyl)-4-hydroxy-, C7-9-branched and linear alkyl esters 127519-17-9 Ciba Light stabilizer / UV-absorber >> Benzotriazole Coatings >> Waterborne Automotive OEM Automotive refinishing Coil Coating General Industrial /Maintenance Wood & Furniture Coatings Plastic coating 1-methoxy-2-propyl acetate TINUVIN 384-2 is a liquid UV absorber of the hydroxyphenyl- benzotriazole class developed for coatings. Its very high thermal stability and environmental permanence makes it suitable for coatings exposed to high bake cycles and/or extreme environmental conditions. It has been designed to fulfill the high performance and durability requirements of automotive and industrial high quality finishes. Its broad UV absorption allows efficient protection of light sensitive base coats or substrates such as wood and plastics. TINUVIN 384-2 is recommended for: automotive coatings general industrial applications, i.e. coil coatings, wood coatings. The liquid form of TINUVIN 384-2 provides easy incorporation into water borne systems. The performance provided by TINUVIN 384-2 can be enhanced when used in combination with a HALS stabilizer such as TINUVIN 292 or TINUVIN 123. These combinations improve the durability of clear coats by inhibiting or retarding the occurrence of failures such as gloss reduction, cracking, color change, blistering and delamination. Use level: 1-3% based on %wt of binder solids. Hydroxyphenylbenzotriazole. Used as a UV absorber for coatings exposed to high bake cycles and/or extreme environmental conditions such as automotive and industrial high quality finishes, light sensitive basecoats or substrates such as wood and plastics, and coil coatings. Offers very high thermal stability and environmental permanence, broad UV absorption, easy incorporation into water borne systems. Can be used in combination with HALS stabilizer to improve durability of clear coats and decrease gloss reduction, cracking, color change, blistering and delamination. <br> Use level: 1-3% based on %wt of binder solids.
