Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (hindered + amine_light_stabilizer)
Selected AbstractsFacile synthetic route to polymerizable hindered amine light stabilizers for transition-metal-catalyzed olefin copolymerizationJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 6 2004M. Auer Abstract This work describes a facile method by which a polymerizable hindered amine light stabilizer, 4-(10-undecylidene)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, was prepared in a single-step procedure by means of a Wittig reaction. The monomer was successfully copolymerized with ethylene with a rac -[dimethylsilylenebis(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-indenyl)]zirconium dichloride/methylalumoxane catalyst system. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In the second part, the energies (stabilities) of the nitroxyl radicals and various intermediate species have been predicted using AccuModel® and related to stabilization performance and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectral data. Nitroxyl radicals with low predicted stability generally afforded improved thermal and photostabilization. ESR spectra were used to obtain values of nitroxyl radical concentration ([>NO·]) and g -factor as a function of pre-aging time for combinations of pre-aged HDPE and >NH HALS. Demethylation reactions of > N-methyl HALS resulted in uselessly weak ESR spectra. The HALS that afforded poor thermal oxidative stabilization gave rise to pronounced minima in [>NO·] that coincided with a maximum in hydroperoxide concentration. The g -factor values indicated that a predominant nitroxyl canonical form generally promoted superior thermal oxidative stabilization, whereas a predominance of the dipolar N·+O, form promoted superior photo-oxidative stabilization. These trends may be related to greater radical-scavenging and peroxide-trapping effects, respectively. Molecular modeling and ESR spectra can therefore provide valuable insight into the effectiveness of HALS and stabilization mechanisms. J. Vinyl Addit.

Possible synergism with a triazine functional UV absorber is also explored. Under thermal degradation (measured by carbonyl index) the polymeric HALS performed best, mainly because of reduced volatilization. Additionally, >N-methyl HALS generally showed superior performance under thermal degradation. There was no synergism between an N-CH3 polymeric HALS and the UV1164 triazine additive. However, the equivalent N-H polymeric HALS interacted in a complex manner with UV1164, giving synergism and antagonism, depending on HALS/UV1164 ratio. Strong synergism was evident with the monomeric HALS when the total stabilizer level was 0.2% w/w. Reduction in the overall stabilizer level to 0.05% w/w eliminated the synergism. The UV1164 alone led to rapid and intense yellowing; however, the rate and intensity of yellowing reduced dramatically upon combination with HALS, particularly when the UV1164 level was above 0.1% w/w. When the formulation was under UV attack, the molar mass and the type of N-substitution had no influence on stabilization performance because of the relatively low temperature of testing (leading to reduced volatilization), and the similarly effective UV-stabilization routes for N-methyl HALS and N-H HALS. Under UV attack, yellowing reached a maximum and then decreased to approximately the initial level, while HALS/UV1164 combinations generally showed weak antagonism. J. Vinyl Addit.
