2 2 AGENDA Phenomenon and mechanism of out-door weathering of white rigid PVC PVC degradation scheme with TiO 2 present PVC surface degradation by TiO 2 photo-catalysis Durable TiO 2 vs. Chalking TiO 2 A two-year out-door weathering study Effects of different exposure climates Effects of stabilizer types and TiO 2 loading Effects of TiO 2 chalking
3 3 Out-door Weathering of White Rigid PVC What do we observe? Discoloration (Yellowing): due to formation of conjugated double bonds (polyene) (8 minimum) White->Yellow usually linked to a photolysis phenomenon: hν Photobleaching: due to photo-chemical oxidation of conjugated-double bonds, created during processing Yellow->white Photo-oxidation: hν + O 2 Loss of gloss: due to surface damage (creation of micro-cracks subsequent to PVC chain scissions Photo-oxidation: hν + O2 Also photo-catalysis of TiO2 pigments (Discuss later) Loss of impact strength: due to resin degradation subsequent to PVC chain scissions
4 4 Role of TiO 2 : Interaction with light UV light absorption protection from direct resin degradation Attenuation of 9% UV light -> ~2μm depth Visible light scattering opacity, hiding power, tint strength: hides yellowing Catalytic degradation gloss loss, color fade, chalking

7 7 Effects of TiO 2 Photo-catalytic Degradation Surface degradation Gloss loss PVC surface become rougher gloss loss is due to TiO 2 catalyzed degradation or direct UV absorption by the resin Color fade resin degradation and void formation lowers refractive index of the matrix, increasing visible scattering efficiency PVC part becomes whiter Chalking physical disintegration of the resin in near surface non-chalking // durable grades of TiO2 are surface-treated to suppress photocatalysis

10 1 Acid Solubility Test as an Indicator of Non-Chalking/Durable TiO 2 Most commercially available TiO 2 uses silica surface treatment to achieve non-chalking performance Since silica does not dissolve in acid, acid solubility test can determine how well the silica treatment encapsulates the TiO 2 particles. Lower the acid solubility, higher the durability of TiO 2 General-Purpose/Chalking TiO 2 : >3 wt%, Ti-Pure R-13, R-12 Semi-durable TiO 2 : 2 wt%, Ti-Pure R-92 + Non-Chalking/Durable TiO 2 : <1 wt%, Ti-Pure R-15, R-96

19 19 CONCLUSIONS The roles of TiO 2 in durability of exterior rigid PVC are: 1) to absorb UV, limiting direct resin degradation, 2) to scatter light, thus masking discoloration from absorption of visible light. Chalking effects of TiO 2 could accelerate the degradation of PVC matrix by the photocatalysis chemistry in the near surface region, where UV is absorbed. Chalking can be suppressed by the silica encapsulation to achieve non-chalking or durable performance. Acid solubility can be used to differentiate the chalking grade and non-chalking or durable grade TiO 2. Chalking by TiO 2 is a disadvantage when gloss retention is important. Chalking is also a disadvantage in color PVC because it promotes color fade. Accelerated weathering gloss loss rates adequately identify chalking versus non-chalking gloss loss for most climates. Higher temperature, higher irradiance and dry climate resulted in the fastest gloss loss rate and higher color change for rigid PVC among four outdoor exposure locations. Dry climate and peak temperatures are key factors in the hot-dry degradation of exterior PVC. Higher loading levels of durable TiO 2 showed an advantage to retain gloss longer and minimize discoloration.
