Description: LIGHT-STABILIZED ORGANIC POLYMERS. The present invention relates to light-stabilized organic polymers. More specifically, the present invention relates to organic polymers light-stabilized by the addition, to said organic polymers, of an effective quantity of one or more compounds belonging to the group of enamines consisting of derivatives of /3-keto-esters , or β- keto-amides or 1, 3-diketones with primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, carrying at least one sterically hindered amine group in the molecule. It is known that organic polymers undergo degradation over a period of time as a result of exposure to atmospheric agents, and mainly to ultraviolet radia- tion, and they also easily undergo thermoxidative degradation during processing and transformation processes. This degradation causes a deterioration in the physical characteristics of organic polymers such as, for example, a reduction in the impact strenght and flexure as well as alterations in the optical properties of the end-article. Stabilizing compounds- are usually introduced into organic polymers to prevent the above degradation. The Applicant has now found that compounds belonging to the group of enamines consis ing of derivatives of 3-keto-esters, or /3-keto-amides or 1, 3-diketones with primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, carrying at least one sterically hindered amine group in the molecule, are capable of stabilizing organic polymers to which they are added improving their resistance to light, in particular, to ultraviolet radiation. The above compounds are capable of absorbing ultraviolet radiation with a maximum absorption at a wave-length equal to 280 ran. This wave-length has a particularly aggressive action towards organic polymers. The present invention therefore relates to organic polymers light-stabilized by the addition, to said organic polymers, of an effective quantity of one or more compounds belonging to the group of enamines consisting of derivatives of j3-keto-esters, or /?-keto- amides or 1, 3-diketones with primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, carrying in the molecule at least one sterically hindered amine group, having general formula (I): I 3 [ R — (--N—C=CH—C— ) m — ] n —R (I) R, 0 wherein m represents an integer from 1 to 3 , extremes included; n represents an integer from 1 to 4 , extremes included; R 1 represents a triazine having one of the following general formula (II), (III) or (IV): wherein R represents a hydrogen atom; a linear or branched C-C- g alkyl group; a -NHR 6 amine group or a -SR 6 group wherein R 6 represents a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched C j -C jg alkyl group; R 1 and R 2 , the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom; a linear or branched C.-C^ a alkyl group; a linear or branched C 2 -C 8 alkoxyalkyl group; a C 5 -C a cycloalkyl group optionally containing a heteroatom selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur; a 6 -C. & aryl group; a C 7 -C 2Q arylalkyl or alkylaryl group; a group having general formula (V) : wherein R 7 represents a hydrogen atom; a linear or branched Cι _ C 18 alkyl group, said alkyl group optionally substituted with a -NHR 8 group or an -OR 8 group wherein R β represents a hydrogen atom, a linear or branched C^-C^ a alkyl group, or a C 6 -C 18 aryl group; an -OR 9 group wherein R < . represents a hydrogen atom, or a linear or branched C^-C^ & alkyl group; or, R 1 and R 2 considered jointly with the nitrogen atom, represent a C 5 -C 8 heterocyclic group option- ally containing a second heteratom selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur; R 3 and R 4 , the same or different, represent a linear or branched C,-C 18 alkyl group; a C 6 -C 1β aryl group; a C 7 -C 20 alkylaryl or arylalkyl group; a linear or branched C^C g alkoxyl group; or, R 4 represents a group having general formula (VI): wherein R 7 has the same meanings defined above; or, R 4 represents an NR^R.., group wherein R 10 and R , the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom; a linear or branched C^C^ alkyl group; a linear or branched C 2 -C & alkoxyalkyl group; a C 5 -C 8 cycloalkyl group optionally containing a heteroa- tom selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur; a C 6 -C 18 aryl group; a C γ -C 2Q arylalkyl or alkylaryl group; a triazine having one of the following general formula (II) , (III) or (IV) : wherein R. has the same meanings defined above; a group having general formula (V) : wherein 7 has the same meanings defined above; or, R, 0 and R considered jointly with the nitrogen atom, represent a C 5 ~C a heterocyclic group option¬ ally containing a second heteroatom selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur; or represents a group having one of the following general formulae (VII) , (VIII) or (IX) : R,2 ■ —OCH 2 --CH- •ORι.

The extruder is activated at 50 rp and the filament leaving the extruder is cut into granules which are subsequently transformed into films with a "Plasticizer" operating at a temperature of 220 °C. The films are then subjected to compression until films with a thickness of 100 μm are obtained, operating under the following conditions: 2 minutes of preheating and 2 minutes of compression 100 Kg/cm 2 at 200 °C. The films thus obtained are subjected to accelerated aging in a first Atlas CI 65 Weatherometer under the following conditions (WOM 1) : temperature of the black panel: 63 "C ; radiation: 0.40 W/m 2 at 340 nm; - relative humidity: 50%; rain cycle: (102 '-18') 18' of rain every 102'; and, subsequently in a second Atlas CI 65 Weatherometer (WOM 2) under the following conditions: temperature of the black panel: 60 °C; - radiation: 0.33 W/m 2 at 340 nm; relative humidity: 50%.
