Ultraviolet (UV) stabilizers
Ultraviolet (UV) stabilizers are additives used in materials like plastics, paints, and textiles to protect them from damage caused by sunlight’s ultraviolet rays. UV light can break down these materials over time, leading to cracking, fading, or weakening. Stabilizers absorb or block UV radiation, preventing or slowing this deterioration. They help extend the lifespan and maintain the appearance of outdoor products, ensuring they stay durable and looking good longer, even after prolonged sun exposure.
