Used primarily as a UV absorber in polymer systems, this compound provides excellent protection against ultraviolet radiation-induced degradation. It is commonly incorporated into plastics, coatings, and adhesives to prevent yellowing, cracking, and loss of mechanical strength due to prolonged sunlight exposure. Its effectiveness in both clear and pigmented formulations makes it suitable for automotive coatings, industrial finishes, and exterior building materials. Additionally, it exhibits good compatibility with a range of resins and maintains stability under high processing temperatures, making it ideal for use in polyurethanes, polyesters, and acrylic-based systems.
