The electrochemical behavior of selected phenolic benzotriazoles (BZTs), namely 2‐(2H‐benzotriazol‐2‐yl)‐4,6‐bis(1‐methyl‐1‐phenylethyl)phenol and 2,4‐di‐tert‐butyl‐6‐(5‐chlorobenzotriazol‐2‐yl)phenol (commercial names UV234 and UV327, respectively) were examined with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and con...
