Q1: What is Sinosorb® UV-312 and what is its chemical classification?
A: Sinosorb® UV-312 (historically known as UV Absorber VSU or UV 312) is a premium commercial-grade light stabilizer belonging to the oxalanilide (oxamide) chemical class. Known by its dual nomenclature as N-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-N'-(4-ethylphenyl)-ethlyene diamide or N1-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-N2-(2-ethylphenyl)oxalamide under CAS 23949-66-8, it acts as a non-color-contributing UV screening agent that protects sensitive organic matrices from photolytic polymer breakdown.
Q2: What are the common uses of UV Absorber VSU (UV 312) in the plastics industry?
A: The common uses of UV Absorber VSU are focused heavily on plastics that require pristine initial color and high-temperature curing. Its main uses include stabilization additives for polyamides (Nylon), thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU), polycarbonates, and high-bake powder coatings. It is favored by chemical compounding engineers because it protects materials without causing initial yellow discoloration or interacting with curing
catalysts.
Q3: Why choose an oxalanilide UV absorber like Sinosorb® UV-312 over benzotriazoles?
A: Unlike benzotriazole light stabilizers, oxalanilides like Sinosorb® UV-312 do not absorb any light within the visible violet-blue spectrum, meaning they add absolutely zero yellow tint to a clear formulation. Additionally, traditional stabilizers frequently cross-react with residual metal catalysts left behind from plastic manufacturing, turning the compound bright yellow. Sinosorb® UV-312 remains completely inert to metal ions, providing superior color stability during intense thermal processing.
Q4: Where can I buy high-quality Sinosorb® UV-312 in large quantities with factory-direct pricing?
A: Our proprietary brand Sinosorb® UV-312 guarantees excellent chemical purity (99.0%) and high light transmittance. We provide full logistics tracking for orders spanning from validation testing trial drums to complete full-container sea shipments.
