UV radiation from sunlight and artificial light can degrade plastics through photodegradation, leading to cracking, discoloration, and loss of strength. UV stabilizers help prevent this damage. They are mainly of two types: UV absorbers (UVA) and hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS). HALS are highly effective, working at low doses to protect polymers without absorbing UV themselves.
Sumiran offers UV Masterbatch with 10–20% HALS concentration to protect polymers from UV degradation and enhance product strength. We provide tailor-made, cost-effective solutions from our advanced facility in Ahmedabad, India.
