Intro: GOYENCHEMUV -1130 is a liquid UV absorber of the hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazole class specifically developed for coatings. The product is soluble in all common solvents but also compatible with water borne systems. In view of the high durability demands, its high temperature and extraction resistance makes it especially suitable for general industrial and automotive coatings. Because of its broad UV absorption, GOYENCHEMUV-1130 provides efficient protection to light sensitive substrates such as paint, plastics and various kinds of resin or polymer. GOYENCHEMUV-1130 is also well performed as a textile auxiliary.

Advantages: The dispersion of GOYENCHEMUV-1130 in water borne systems could be easily diluted with a water miscible solvent such as butylcarbitol. GOYENCHEMUV-1130 is recommended for both solvent and water based coatings such as:
• Automotive coatings
• Industrial coatings
• Indoors /outdoors paint
• Textile
• Various kinds of resin & polymer
GYC technical dept. suggest GOYENCHEMUV-1130 be used in combination with a light stabilizer of the sterically hindered amine class (HALS) such as GOYENCHEMUV-292. GOYENCHEMUV-1130 these synergistic combinations impart superior coating protection against gloss reduction, cracking, blistering, and color fading. The light stabilizers may be added in two coat automotive finishes to the clear coat and to the base coat. However, according to our experience, the optimum protection is achieved by adding the light stabilizer to the topcoat. The amount of GOYENCHEMUV-1130 required for optimum performance should be determined in trials covering a concentration range.
