Tinuvin® 5100 is a liquid, non-basic aminoether (NOR) hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS), meticulously developed to impart high durability to exterior industrial and decorative coatings. Tailored for coatings requiring a low-basicity, non-interacting, and high-value stabilizer, Tinuvin® 5100 is designed based on amino-ether functionality. Its low basicity minimizes interactions with acidic paint components, such as curing catalysts. The high efficiency of Tinuvin® 5100 significantly enhances coating performance by reducing paint degradation that leads to issues like cracking, gloss reduction in clear coats, and chalking and fading in pigmented paints. Key features and benefits include being a liquid amino-ether (non-interacting) HALS, minimizing interaction with acidic materials like acid catalysts and acidic pigments, and improving coating resistance to cracking and loss of gloss by scavenging free radicals.
