Abstract:
This invention provides novel hindered amine light stabilizers with flame retardant properties having, e.g., the following Formula I wherein R is, e.g., chlorine or bromine substituted phthalimide, R1, R2 and R3 are, e.g., hydrogen, and Y is, e.g., a direct bond. The compounds of this invention protect polymeric compositions against the degradative effects of heat and light and simultaneously improve the flammability rating of the polymeric composition, while also contributing antioxidant and metal deactivation properties to the polymeric compositions. The compositions of this invention are prepared by reacting halogenated flame retardant containing a cyclic anhydride group with hindered amine light stabilizers containing primary amino or reactive hydrazido functional groups. The preparation of the novel compositions may be carried out in inert solvents or in inert polymeric compositions in a melt blending step.
Abstract:
Amic acids, cyclic imides and mixtures thereof which contain both diacyl hydrazide functionalities and hindered amine functionalities of the formula wherein R is selected from X is. e.g.. 1,2-aryl diradical of 6-12 carbons, R 1 is, e.g.. hydrogen or alkyl of 1-20 carbons, R 2 is hydrogen or alkyl of 1-4 carbons, R 3 is, e.g.. hydrogen or hydroxyl and Y is, e.g., -Z-C(=O)-N(R 5 )-, wherein Z is. e.g., -O- and R 5 is. e.g., hydrogen or primary alkyl of 1-8 carbons, are prepared by reacting non-halogenated cyclic anhydrides with hindered amine light stabilizers containing reactive hydrazido functionalities in inert solvents or in either neat or inert polymeric compositions in a melt blending step. The compositions protect polymeric compositions against the degradative effects of heat and light.
Abstract:
The present invention comprises novel single-functional and mixtures of multi-functional oligomeric performance additive compounds having one or more components of Structure A (The definitions of R, Z1, Z2, Z3, A1, A2, A3 and y are given in the Summary Section), their uses and polymeric compounds and compositions containing them which have enhanced oxidative stabilities, enhanced ultraviolet (UV) and light stabilities and/or enhanced flame retardance. An example is the bis sulfonic acid bispotassium salt reaction product from an oligomeric caprolactone diol (TONE® 260), 2-sulfobenzoic acid anhydride and potassium carbonate, and use of this product, at levels up to about 3.0%, in a general purpose bisphenol A polycarbonate resin, to enhance the fire resistance or flame retardance of the polycarbonate resin.
Abstract:
There are provided polymer bound hindered amine light stabilizers with recurring units selected from or both in which the units occur, e.g., in the polymer backbone and wherein R¹ and R² are, e.g., hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 6 carbons, x is an integer of 0 or 1, and G has the structure wherein X is, e.g., -Z-C(=O)-R⁹-C(=O)-N(R⁸)- where Z is, e.g., -N(R¹⁰)-, R⁹ is, e.g., a direct bond and R⁴, R⁵, R⁶, R⁸ and R¹⁰ are, e.g., hydrogen. They are prepared by reacting hindered amine light stabilizers containing reactive hydrazide functionalities with anhydride containing polymers or copolymers. The reactions may be carried out in an inert solvent or in a melt blending step. The polymer bound hindered amine light stabilizers are useful alone or may also be used to stabilize other polymers, copolymers or polymer blends against the deleterious effects of heat and/or light.
