Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a new class of polymeric hindered amine light stabilizers based on maleic anhydride modified polyolefins reacted with tetramethyl piperidine derivatives. These materials are more effective than most of the generally used hindered amine light stabilizers, but due to their higher molecular weights and the polyolefin backbone, they are more compatible with polyolefins.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 105 words
A hindered amine substituted, maleic anhydride modified olefin polymer having a general formula selected from the class consisting of ##STR6## wherein R is an alpha-olefin polymer or copolymer residue and x and y are integers of a size relative to the molecular weight of R such that the total substitution of tetramethyl piperidine residue is between about 0.2 and 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the modified olefin polymer, and R' is H, OH, O', or O--R", where R" is a lower alkyl or substituted lower alkyl group having at least one hydrogen atom on the carbon attached to the nitrogen atom.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 105 words
A hindered amine substituted, maleic anhydride modified olefin polymer having a general formula selected from the class consisting of ##STR6## wherein R is an alpha-olefin polymer or copolymer residue and x and y are integers of a size relative to the molecular weight of R such that the total substitution of tetramethyl piperidine residue is between about 0.2 and 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the modified olefin polymer, and R' is H, OH, O', or O--R", where R" is a lower alkyl or substituted lower alkyl group having at least one hydrogen atom on the carbon attached to the nitrogen atom.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
