Abstract

Adhesive compositions are rendered stable against degradation caused by ultraviolet light through the incorporation of a highly soluble, photostable benzotriazole UV absorber which is substituted in the ortho position of the hydroxyphenyl ring by .alpha.-cumyl or phenyl. Examples of such compounds are 2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 5-chloro-2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole , 5-fluoro-2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole , 2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-butylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 5-chloro-2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-butylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole and 5-fluoro-2-(2-hydroxy-3-.alpha.-cumyl-5-tert-butylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole . These compounds exhibit excellent photostability and are highly soluble in adhesive formulations. The laminated articles derived from these compositions include, for example, solar control films, films and glazings, UV absorbing glasses and glass coatings, windscreens, retroreflective sheetings and signs, solar reflectors, optical films and the like.
