TINUVIN® 479

TINUVIN 479 is a hydroxyphenyl-triazine (HPT) UV absorber designed to fulfill the high performance and durability needs for automotive and industrial finishes. It has been developed as an interaction free UV absorber to be used in amine and / or metal catalyzed coating systems or in coatings applied on base coats containing such catalysts. Its high extinction coefficient allows the formulation of coatings with reduced UV absorber levels and / or thin film applications. Combinations especially with other HPT UV absorbers and the newest generation photoinitiators makes it an excellent choice for UV curing coatings. TINUVIN 479 is recommended for automotive OEM and refinish systems, UV cured coatings, and industrial finishes where long life performance is essential. Due to the high extinction coefficient and superior photostability applications specifically include thin film applications. Depending on the application, the spectral coverage can be further broadened through combinations with other UV absorbers of the hydroxyphenyl-triazine or hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazole class such as TINUVIN 400 or TINUVIN 928.
