Introduction to UV Stabilization, 2001 Polymers Laminations & Coatings Conference Proceedings
R.E. King--The damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation include the use of screeners, quenchers and absorbers. These type of UV stabilizers either deflect or selectively absorb the potentially damaging effects of UV radiation and then dissipate the energy at lower wavelengths. An alternative approach is the use of hindered amines as free radical scavengers & hydroperoxide decomposers to quench the negative chemistry & damaging effects of UV radiation.
