General description

2-[3-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]ethyl methacrylate is an organic compound that belongs to the class of acrylate monomers. It is commonly used as a UV absorber or stabilizer in polymers, coatings, adhesives, intraocular lenses, and other materials to protect them from the harmful effects of UV radiation.

Application

2-[3-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]ethyl methacrylate can be used:
  • To prepare a polymer material by copolymerization with 2-hydroxy-4-acryloyloxybenzophenone (HABP). The synthesized polymer can be applied to cotton fabric for UV protection.
  • In the preparation of ultraviolet (UV) protective textiles. It is grafted onto the fabric via polymerization to create a UV-protective coating.
  • As a monomer in synthesizing fluoroalkyl end-capped oligomers with good surface-active properties.
  • It is also used as a UV absorber (UVAs) in intraocular lenses.

The use of enzymes in conjunction with inorganic photocatalysts requires stability against photooxidation. In this paper, we describe enhanced stabilization of a model enzyme, chymotrypsin, to photooxidation driven by titanium dioxide exposed to ultraviolet light (TiO(2)-UV). Stabilization is achieved conjugating
