UV absorber 3039

UV absorber UV-3039 is a liquid cyanoacrylate UV absorber and oil-soluble sunscreen agent. It can absorb ultraviolet rays ranging from 280 to 350nm, with the absorption peak at 303nm. It has the characteristics of good compatibility, low volatility, good thermal stability, and high absorption efficiency. It is soluble in plasticizers, polar solvents, and non-polar solvents.

It is suitable for PVC, PVC plastic adhesives, PUR, PMMA, organic silicone emulsions, and sunscreen emulsion.

Compared with conventional UV absorbers, UV-3039 delivers:

  • Enhanced photostability under extreme outdoor exposure
  • Low volatility and high thermal stability
  • Minimal color impact in transparent systems
  • Superior durability in automotive and industrial coatings

Key Technical Advantages

  • Broad UV Absorption Range - Efficient absorption in the 290–400 nm range ensures maximum protection for sensitive substrates.
  • Excellent Weather Resistance - Maintains performance under prolonged UV exposure, making it ideal for outdoor coatings.
  • High Compatibility - Suitable for acrylics, polyurethanes, polyesters, and engineering plastics.
  • Low Migration - Prevents blooming and ensures long-term stability in polymer matrices.
