Broad-spectrum UV absorber with efficient UV protection for plastics -OMNISTAB UVP

OMNISTAB UVP is a cost-effective UV absorber with a broad UV absorption range, capable of absorbing UV light in the 300–400 nm range, including both UVA and UVB wavelengths. Additionally, OMNISTAB UVP absorbs virtually no visible light above 400 nm, meaning it has minimal impact on the color of the finished product. So it performs well in light-colored transparent products.

Even under prolonged exposure to sunlight and intense UV radiation, OMNISTAB UVP provides comprehensive protection for materials, effectively delaying yellowing of plastics and preventing the degradation of the physical properties, thereby extending the service life of plastics. Its mechanism of action is utilizing proton transfer to convert light energy into harmless energy and release it.

Due to its excellent UV blocking performance, OMNISTAB UVP is widely used in the production of plastics, such as styrene-based copolymers, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate blends, polyesters, acrylic resins, and other engineering plastics. OMNISTAB UVP is also suitable for elastomers, adhesives, coating, and epoxy materials.

>> Main applications of OMNISTAB UVP

1. Home appliance sector: When UVP is used in the plastic casings of appliances such as televisions, washing machines, refrigerators, and air conditioners. It prevents yellowing and brittleness caused by prolonged exposure to UV light, maintains the material's physical and mechanical properties, and improves the product's aesthetic.

2. Wire and cable industry: Adding OMNISTAB UVP to wires and cables prevents bubbling, cracking, and surface peeling under exposure to sunlight, enhancing the weather resistance of the cables.

3. OMNISTAB UVP is highly safe and compliant with FDA, making it suitable for use in materials that come into indirect contact with food. Such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food packaging materials.

At the meanwhile, due to application restrictions on BTZ-based UV absorbers, such as UV326 being listed in SVHC LIST, many companies have had to replace BTZ-based UV absorbers with more eco-friendly grades. OMNISTAB UVP has been proven to be an effective alternative for UV326 in most formulas, particularly in PVC, PC, PS, PMMA, etc. If you have related demands, UVP is worth a try!
