Used primarily as a UV absorber in various polymer applications, this chemical enhances the durability and longevity of materials exposed to sunlight. It is commonly incorporated into plastics, coatings, and adhesives to prevent degradation caused by UV radiation. In the automotive industry, it is added to paints and plastic components to maintain color stability and mechanical properties. Additionally, it finds use in the construction sector for protecting materials like PVC window profiles and outdoor furniture from weathering effects. Its effectiveness in stabilizing polymers makes it a valuable additive in the production of outdoor and industrial products.
