Applications

1. Plastics and Polymers

Used in polyolefins (PE, PP), styrenics (ABS, PS), PVC, PET, PBT, PC, and polyurethanes.

Protects polymers from UV-induced degradation such as yellowing, cracking, chalking, and loss of mechanical properties.

2. Automotive and Outdoor Applications

Ideal for automotive interiors, bumpers, trims, and exterior panels.

Used in garden furniture, building materials, agricultural films, and other UV-exposed products.

3. Coatings and Adhesives

Added to paint formulations and clear coatings to protect color, gloss, and substrate integrity.

Suitable for wood coatings, automotive clear coats, and powder coatings.

4. Fibers and Films

Used in the production of synthetic fibers and optical films to extend product life and maintain appearance under sunlight exposure.

Benefits

Broad-Spectrum UV Protection: Effectively absorbs both UVA and UVB light (approx. 290–400 nm).

Non-Volatile and Thermally Stable: Can withstand high processing temperatures without loss of performance.

Low Migration: Excellent compatibility and low tendency to leach or bloom, making it ideal for long-term applications.

Excellent Synergy: Works well in combination with hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) for enhanced light stability.

Minimal Impact on Appearance: Low coloration, making it suitable for transparent or lightly tinted applications.

05

Conclusion

UV-1164 (CAS 2725-22-6) is a high-performance triazine-based UV absorber widely used in plastics, coatings, and fibers to protect materials from the damaging effects of ultraviolet light. Its superior thermal stability, low volatility, and broad-spectrum protection make it ideal for durable goods, automotive parts, and outdoor applications. UV-1164 helps extend product lifespan, preserve appearance, and maintain mechanical performance in UV-exposed environments.
