A boost in durability and UV protection for waterborne coatings

| By Chemical Engineering

The new high-performance ultraviolet (UV) absorber Hostavin 3330 disp. XP enhances the durability and UV protection of waterborne coatings, enabling them to reach the performance of conventional solvent-borne systems, says the producer. Hostavin 3330 disp. XP has an active UV absorber content of 52%, which is said to bring a significant improvement in the area of UV-light protection for waterborne systems. It also offers high thermal stability and superior durability for effective prolonged service life. It is ideal for use in clear and pigmented coatings for exterior wood protection, as well as for industrial and automotive coatings. — Clariant, Muttenz, Switzerland
