Description
TINUVIN 494 AR is a proprietary blend of the monomeric high-molecular-weight stabilizer Ciba CHIMASSORB 119 FL and auxiliary additives. It serves as an excellent UV stabilizer with outstanding pesticide/insecticide resistance. TINUVIN 494 AR is particularly suitable for agricultural film applications where crop protection chemicals may pose a threat to the film during use.
BASF's Tinuvin light stabilizers protect plastic components from mechanical property loss and surface discoloration under diverse climatic conditions. Tinuvin comprises a range of ultraviolet absorbers (UVA) and hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) for plastics. These agents enable plastic components to maintain their appearance and performance. Consequently, Tinuvin light stabilizers extend the lifespan of UV-sensitive plastic applications.
Features
Physical Form: White to gray powder
Provides long-term stability for agricultural films; serves as a long-term antioxidant
Exceptionally high light absorption, thus requiring only minimal addition levels; outstanding light and thermal stability; excellent protection for film coatings; enables the use of other high-performance UV absorbers in combination with new-generation photoinitiators for UV-curable coatings
Application
Automotive OEM Coatings and Touch-Up Paints UV-Curable Coatings and Industrial Coatings Thin-Film Systems When used in combination with other UV absorbers (e.g., Tinuvin 400 or 928), they can broaden the spectrum of light absorption.
Addition amount
0.5-2% Tinuvin 494 Tinuvin 494 AR Tinuvin 400, ratio 1:2) or (Tinuvin 494 AR Tinuvin 928, ratio 1:2) 0.5-2% Tinuvin 123 or 292 or 152
Tinuvin 494 AR is a synthetic hydroxyphenyl triazine (HPT) UV absorber. It delivers outstanding performance in coatings, including an extremely high extinction coefficient, excellent light-life properties, high thermal stability, superior performance under high-temperature cycling, minimal volatility under harsh environmental conditions, excellent film application properties, and ideal spectral coverage when combined with other UV absorbers.
Tinuvin 494 AR is engineered to meet the demands for high performance and durability in automotive and industrial coatings. Its high extinction coefficient allows for reduced UV absorber levels in coating formulations. It is suitable for horizontal and/or thin-film applications. Particularly when combined with other HPT UV absorbers and photoinitiators, it is an excellent choice for the latest generation of UV-curable coatings.
Tinuvin 494 AR has been developed as a non-interacting UV absorber suitable for use in amine and/or metal-catalyzed coating systems or primers containing catalysts.
