General
Tinuvin® 1600 is a high performance ultraviolet light absorber of the hydroxyphenyl triazine class exhibiting very low volatility, high absorption and good compatibility with a variety of polymers, co-additives and resin compositions. Tinuvin® 1600 provides superior weathering resistance to polycarbonates, polyesters, and acrylics compared to conventional hydroxyphenyl triazine, benzotriazole or cyanoacrylate UV absorbers.
