Abstract
Photostabilizer-type HALS were analyzed by reverse- and normal-phase l iquid chromatography (HPLC) using C-18, cyano, silica, and amino colum ns with different solvent mixtures as the mobile phase. The stabilizer s analyzed were Tinuvin 770 and Chimassorb 944. The best separation wa s attained using a NH2-column and acetonitrile/water as the mobile pha se. Also, three types of extraction procedures were performed to isola te these additives from the polymeric matrix. The most efficient extra ction method was achieved by refluxing the sample with toluene. Recove ries of 95% were found for additives using this method.
