CAS No.  70624-18-9 / 71878-19-8

Unitechem HALS 944 (Light Stabilizer 944) is a polymeric, high-molecular-weight hindered amine light stabilizer. Its low volatility, low migration and high extraction resistance make it the general-purpose long-term UV stabilizer for PE and PP films, tapes, fibers and molded parts, and it is often blended with HALS 622 or HALS 770.

Product Features & Applications

Key Features


Polymeric, high-molecular-weight HALS with excellent low volatility

Low migration and high extraction resistance — ideal for thin articles, fibers and films

High thermal stability — stable under thermo-oxidative conditions; additional antioxidant effect

Synergistic effect with UV absorbers (e.g., UV-770, UV-3853, LS-622)

FDA approved for food contact applications (21 CFR)

Provides long-term thermal stabilization of polymer matrices

Applications

LS-944 is effective across a broad range of polymers: polyolefins (PE, PP), crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE), olefin copolymers (EVA), TPO, polyurethane fibers, flexible and rigid PVC, styrenic polymers, TPE, and specialty adhesives. Particularly recommended for thin-walled products, films and fibers where low migration is critical.
