UV Prohibitor Additives

A liquid light stabilizer designed to improve the UV resistance and reduce the discolouration of timber veneers (natural, dyed and reconstituted) when added to the appropriate coating. XT170 has both benzotriazole and triazine UV-Absorbers and HALS (hindered amine light stabilizers). UV-Absorbers prevent the breakdown of both the coating and the substrate by filtering out the UV rays. HALS stabilizers act as radical scavengers, significantly reducing the effect of UV exposure to both the coating and substrate. In XT170 both UV-Absorbers and HALS work together synergistically to provide enhanced protection and prolonged coating durability.

Please refer to the TDS for more information, i.e. protection, on the XT170 range.
