Patent number: 5281645Abstract: The present invention relates to new hydroxybenzophenones containing an ester functional group and to the use of these compounds as UV absorbers in organic polymers. More precisely, the new hydroxybenzophenones are 1,3-di(4-benzoyl-3-hydroxyphenoxy)-2-propanol carboxylates which preferably have a molecular mass of at least 500.These benzophenones can be employed as anti-UV agents in organic polymers, either by themselves or jointly with known benzophenones of lower molecular mass, such as 2-hydroxy-4-alkoxybenzophenones.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 1992Date of Patent: January 25, 1994Assignee: Rhone-Poulenc ChimieInventors: Philippe Chicart, Michel Gay

Patent number: 5258431Abstract: Moldable weather-resistant polyacetal resin compositions exhibiting low surface gloss characteristics are a melt-blend of (A) 100 parts by weight of a polyacetal base resin, (B) between 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a weather stabilizer, and (C) a surface gloss reducing effective amount of between 1 to 50 parts by weight of a core-shell polymer having a rubbery polymer as the core and a glassy vinyl copolymer having at least one oxygenic polar group as the shell. Molded articles formed of such polyacetal compositions exhibit weather-resistance properties and a reduced surface gloss of at least 35%. Moreover, the ability to imprint a grain-like appearance on the surfaces of the molded articles is enhanced.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 1992Date of Patent: November 2, 1993Assignee: Polyplastics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toru Katsumata, Nobuyuki Matsunaga
