Triazine UV absorber & light stabilizer
Overview
BLS® 700 is a high performance triazine UV absorber that is ideal for the light stabilization of plastics, adhesives, coatings, candles, and other substrates.
Advantages
- Protects plastics and other substrates from the damaging effects of UV radiation
- Strong absorption of UV radiation in the 280-350 nm region
- Outstanding photostability
- Synergistic performance with other light stabilizers (HALS, benzoates)
- Low color contribution, low volatility
- Non-interacting with metal ions, bases
- Excellent compatibility with plastics, including polyolefins FDA cleared in polyolefins
- Improved regulatory acceptance as compared to benzotriazole UV absorbers
