Fatty amine derivatives of butylated hydroxy toluene for the protection of surfaces from physical and chemical degradation

摘要

The present invention relates to novel antioxidant compounds to reduce the physical or chemical degradation or discoloration of surfaces, especially the fading of a variety of surfaces from sunlight, wherein the antioxidant compound is a derivative of butylated hydroxytoluene or sorbic acid and is selected from the group consisting of: wherein each R<7> is selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated C1-C22, alkyl, aryl, cyclic alkyl group (which may be interrupted by an ester, amide, or ether group), hydrogen, and mixtures thereof; each R<8>, and R<9> is selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated C1-C22, alkyl, aryl, cyclic alkyl group (which may be interrupted by an ester, amide, or ether group), and mixtures thereof; n is from 1 to 50; Z is a hydrogen or a methyl group; wherein the amino group of the compounds of Formulas I to II can be protonated or quaternized with R<10>X where R<10> is a hydrogen, a C1-C6 alkyl group, C1 -C6 hydroxyl alkyl group, benzyl group and mixtures thereof; and X<-> is any compatible anion.
