Product Introduction:

UV absorber UV-9 is a light yellow crystalline powder. It is a broad-spectrum UV absorber with the advantages of high absorption rate, non-toxicity, non-teratogenicity, great light and warmth security.

Sunscreen system
Chemical absorbers normally contain benzene rings and electron-donating groups such as amino or methoxy teams. Sunscreen molecules soak up the power of ultraviolet rays, are excited to leap to greater energy degrees, and afterwards release excess energy in the kind of weak, lengthy waves. The larger the conjugated system in the molecular framework of the absorber, the stronger the capacity to take in ultraviolet rays.

In the structure of UV absorber UV-9, the hydroxyl hydrogen on the benzene ring and the surrounding carbonyl oxygen can create an intramolecular hydrogen bond to create a chelate ring. After taking in ultraviolet light, the molecule goes through thermal vibration, the hydrogen bond is damaged, and the chelate ring is opened up. Currently, the compound remains in an unsteady high-energy state, and in the procedure of returning to the original low-energy secure state, it launches excess power. In this way, high-energy, damaging ultraviolet light ends up being low-energy, safe heat energy. At the exact same time, the carbonyl group is excited and tautomerism takes place, creating an enol structure which also consumes some energy.

UV Absorber UV-9 Uses:

UV absorber is a light stabilizer that can absorb the ultraviolet part of sunlight and fluorescent light sources without changing itself. It protects plastics from photo-oxidative degradation caused by ultraviolet radiation, thereby greatly extending the service life of the product. Plastics and other polymer materials produce auto-oxidation reactions under sunlight and fluorescence due to the action of ultraviolet rays, which leads to the degradation and deterioration of polymers, and the deterioration of appearance and mechanical properties. After adding UV absorbers, this high-energy ultraviolet light can be selectively absorbed, turning it into harmless energy and releasing or consuming it.

Different types of polymers have different wavelengths of ultraviolet rays that cause them to deteriorate. Different UV absorbers can absorb ultraviolet rays of different wavelengths. When using, UV absorbers should be selected according to the type of polymer. UV absorbers should meet the following conditions:

  1. Strongly absorb UV rays (especially wavelengths of 290-400nm).
  2. Good thermal stability, will not change due to heat even during processing, and low thermal volatility.
  3. Good chemical stability, no adverse reaction with material components in the product.
  4. Good miscibility, can be evenly dispersed in the material, no frost, no seepage.
  5. The absorber itself has good photochemical stability, no decomposition, no discoloration.
  6. Colorless, non-toxic, odorless.
  7. Resistant to immersion.
  8. Cheap and easy to obtain.

UV absorbers can be divided into the following categories according to their chemical structure: salicylates, benzophenones, benzotriazoles, substituted acrylonitriles, triazines and other categories.

UV absorbers are used in plastics, coatings, dyes, car windshields, cosmetics, drugs, sunscreens, etc.

UV absorber UV-9 function
UV absorber UV-9 is a light yellow or white crystalline powder, also known as sunscreen agent No. 2, BP-3, suitable for polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polymethyl methacrylate, unsaturated polyester, ABS resin and cellulose resin and other plastics, with a maximum absorption wavelength range of 280-340 nanometers, and a general dosage of 0.1-1.5%. It has good thermal stability and does not decompose at 200°C. This product hardly absorbs visible light, so it is suitable for light-colored transparent products.

UV absorber UV-9 can also be used in paints and synthetic rubber. It is a broad-spectrum UV absorber with the advantages of high absorption rate, non-toxicity, non-teratogenicity, good light and heat stability, etc. UV absorber UV-9 can absorb UV-A and UV-B at the same time. It is a Class I sunscreen approved by the US FDA and is used frequently in the United States and Europe. UV-9 is widely used in sunscreen creams, frosts, honey, lotions, oils and other sunscreen cosmetics. It can also be used as an anti-discoloration agent for products that change color due to photosensitivity. In addition, because UV-9 has good compatibility with many plastics and resins, it is usually used in many fields such as PVC and unsaturated polyester.

UV Absorber Characteristics:

High efficiency UV absorption: UV-9 can quickly and effectively absorb UV rays, reducing the damage of UV rays to materials.

Good thermal stability: UV absorber UV-9 can still maintain stable UV absorption performance under high temperature environment.

Excellent compatibility: UV-9 can be easily mixed with a variety of polymers without affecting the physical and chemical properties of the materials.

Environmentally friendly and safe: UV absorber UV-9 meets environmental protection standards and will not pollute the environment when used.
