Description

3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid hexadecylester is a molecule that has been used as a model system to study the reactions of phosphites with fatty acids. The chemical structure of this compound is similar to the calcium stearate found in coatings and varnishes. This substance reacts with radiation, such as UV light, and forms free radicals. These radicals are reactive functional groups that can lead to crosslinking and polymerization reactions. 3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid hexadecylester has also been used in coating compositions for paper and textiles. It is an absorber of UV light and can protect against yellowing caused by exposure to UV radiation.
