Introduction

Organic substrates such as coatings, inks, adhesives and


sealants with aesthetical, protective and other functional
properties are exposed to a variety of environmental and artificial
factors such as solar radiation, humidity, temperature change,
microbiological attack, air pollutants and many more.

How UV radiation and heat promotes degradation

Light- or heat-induced oxidation of organic materials is a complex

autocatalytic chain and termination reactions. Both initiation steps

Hindered amine
light stabilizers (HALS)

Hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) are mainly derivatives of


2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidine (TMP). They act as radical scavengers
in the autoxidation cycle (see fig.1) and inhibit the photo-oxidative
degradation of polymers in coatings, adhesives and sealants.

The mode of action of HALS is largely independent of the film Basic HALS (e.g., Tinuvin® 292, Tinuvin® 144) are highly
