Abstract: Organic materials which possess outstanding stability to oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation comprise as stabilizers at least one compound of the formula (I) wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1. The compounds of formula I are especially useful as stabilizers for protecting polymers and lubricants against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation and as scavengers for oxidized developer in color photographic material.

Abstract: The instant invention relates to new compounds of the formula I R1 and R2 are each independently of the other a fluorine containing group, R3 and R4 are each independently of the other hydrogen, a fluorine containing group, C1-C12alkyl, phenyl or R4, together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded, form a C5-C8-cycloalkylidene ring that is unsubstituted or substituted by from 1 to 3 C1-C4alkyl groups; R5, R6, R7 and R8 are each independently of the other hydrogen, C1-C12alkyl or C3-C12alkenyl, X1 and X2 are each independently of the other a direct bond or C1-C12alkylene, m is 1 to 10,000, and n is 0 to 10,000. These new compounds of the formula I are useful as reducers of surface energy for organic materials such as polycarbonates, polyesters or polyketones or their mixtures, blends or alloys.

Abstract: Polymers grafted with a compound of formula I, wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, have outstanding stability against oxidative, thermal, dynamic, light-induced and/or ozone-induced degradation.

Abstract: Polymers grafted with a compound of formula I, formula (I) wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, have outstanding stability against oxidative, thermal, dynamic, light-induced and/or ozone-induced degradation [R1—SOmnR—SOp—R2.

Abstract: A novel process for preparing a aminophenyl-triazines of the formula (I?), comprises reacting a corresponding halogenophenyltriazine of the formula (I?), with an amine of the formula (IX), H—NR?2R?3, wherein X is chloro or preferably fluoro and the symbols A, A?, R?2, R?3 and R44 are organic residues as defined in claim 1. Products of this process and derivatives thereof are useful as stabilizers and UV absorbers for protecting an organic material against damage by light, oxygen and/or heat, or as recording dye in an optical recording medium, especially for writing or reading digital information in a recording layer using laser radiation of wavelength less than 450 nm.

Abstract: Polymers grafted with a compound of formula I, formula (I) wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, have outstanding stability against oxidative, thermal, dynamic, light-induced and/or ozone-induced degradation.

Abstract: The instant invention discloses a process for the preparation of compounds of formula I wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, which process comprises hydrolyzing a compound of formula V wherein the general symbols are as defined in claim 1, in an aqueous solvent in the presence of an acid. The compounds of the formula V are new and useful as stabilizers for protecting organic materials, in particular polymers and lubricants, against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
