Tinuvin® DW-ECO Series

The Tinuvin® DW-ECO series is our most recent generation of highly efficient light stabilizers that are based on a proprietary technology that encapsulates the active agents in an acrylic copolymer matrix, termed Novel Encapsulated Additive Technology (NEAT). The solvent-free additives incorporate a new preservative tha enables the grant of the most demanding eco-labels, feature low viscosity, and long-term storage stability without sedimentation or phase separation.

NEAT-based UV absorbers are not only ideal for low and zero-VOC formulations, but also easy to incorporate. They disperse homogeneously into water and/or water-based coatings, and can be added in the final stage of the production process under normal stirring conditions without special equipment or dispersing aids like emulsifiers or co-solvents. Coating properties such as color, gloss, transparency or resistance to wear are left unaffected, and are also suited for adhesives and sealants.
