A pleasant fragrance is imparted to the stabilizatiin of a halogen-containing polymer by the use of an organotin mercaptoalkyl heptanoate, and, optionally, up to about 50%, on an equivalents basis, of a sulfide thereof as the stabilizer. A mixture of the heptanoate with up to about 80% by weight of the mixture of a second carboxylate having from 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the carboxylate moiety may be used in place of the heptanoate.

Stabilizers for improved weatherability of clear polyvinyl chloride compositions

Latent mercaptan stabilizers for improved weatherability of clear halogen-containing polymer compositions

The presence of ammonium halide in a PVC composition along with conventional primary heat stabilizers enhances the heat stability during the early stages of extrusion into pipe and other articles of manufacture. The ammonium halide which is formed as a by-product of the reaction of a metal halide such as zinc chloride or an organotin chloride with a mercaptoester in the presence of ammonia or an amine may be left in the product or a separate source of the ammonium halide may be used to provide the enhanced heat stability.

Ammonium chloride as a PVC co-stabilizer

Compositions for stabilizing rigid (unplasticized) halogen-containing organic polymers against the deteriorative effects of heat, ultra-violet light and weathering comprise organotin or non-tin metal salt primary heat stabilizers in combination with esters of polyhydrocarbyl ether glycols.

Stabilizers for rigid halogen-containing organic polymers comprising a

Compositions for stabilizing halogen-containing organic polymers against the deteriorative effects of heat, light and weathering and which are non-irritating to eyes and mucous membranes, comprise the reaction product produced by combining an organotin oxide, an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid ester and a mercaptan, wherein the chemical equivalence of the mercaptan is less than the chemical equivalence of the diorganotin oxide and the chemical equivalence of the diorganotin oxide is less than the chemical equivalence of the ester compound.

Stabilizers for halogen-containing polymers comprising the product of a

Compositions comprising a combination of a dihydrocarbyl ester of maleic acid and a metal salt of a monohydrocarbyl ester of maleic acid are useful as lubricant-stabilizers for halogen-containing organic polymers and provide unique lubricating-stabilizing characteristics to polymers stabilized therewith.

Lubricant-stabilizer compositions for halogen-containing organic

Compositions comprising an organotin mercaptide, organotin sulfide, organotin carboxylate or mixtures thereof and a diester of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid having one carboxyl group on each carbon atom of the ethenylene group are useful for stabilizing halogen-containing organic polymers against the deteriorative effects of heat, light and weathering.
