  • Patent number: 9045480
    Abstract: The disclosure concerns sterically hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) with low basicity at the nitrogen atom and high thermal stability. They are characterized by their spiro-substitution in the 4-position of the tetramethylpiperidine ring (Spiro-NOR-HALS). These compounds are useful in stabilizing polymers, especially thermoplastic polyolefins, against the deleterious effects of oxidative, thermal and actinic radiation. The compounds are also useful in stabilizing acid catalyzed and ambient cured coatings systems. They are particularly useful when high processing temperatures are additional required.
