Moisture curable extrudable polysulphide sealants comprise the reaction product of (a) a silanized polysulphide obtained by reacting an SH terminated polysulphide with a silane having 2 or 3 hydrolyzable groups and 1 or 2 groups capable of reacting with the SH group in order to cover up to 30% of the SH groups with the silane and (b) a disulphide containing the group ##STR1## group wherein het is an O or S atom or N-organic group. Other moisture curable extrudable sealants comprise the silanized polysulphide (a) and an ortho ester e.g. triethylorthoacetate.

Novel organotin compounds exhibit the general formula ##STR1## where R and R.sub.1 are individually selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 and C.sub.12 alkyl groups, cycloalkyl radicals and phenyl radicals; X is a group of the formula ##STR2## wherein R' is a hydrogen, C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 alkyl, cycloalkyl, or phenyl group;

Organotin compounds

Organotin compounds with low tin content suitable as stabilizers for halogen containing resins e.g. polyvinyl chloride are of formula ##EQU1## where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are C.sub.1-20 alkyl, cycloalkyl or phenyl groups, Q.sub.1 represents a radical selected from the group consisting of ##EQU2## Q.sub.2 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group containing between 1 and 6 carbon atoms or the group --CH.sub.2 Z.sub.3.

Novel diorganotin maleate half esters and process for preparing same

Halogenated vinyl resins such as poly(vinyl chloride) (P.V.C.) are stabilized against degradation by the addition of stabilizers comprising specified monoorganotin sulfur-containing compounds, for example the reaction product of a mono-organotin tris mercapto carboxylic acid ester and a di-organotin sulfide in combination with an alkyl, aryl or mixed alkyl-aryl ester of phosphorous acid. Preferably the stabilizers also include a hindered phenol.

Stabilization of polymeric compositions

Organotin compounds of formula ##EQU1## where a is 0 or 1, x, x', y and y' are 1-6, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 are C.sub.1-12 alkyl, cycloalkyl, aromatic or aralkyl hydrocarbyl, R.sub.4 and R.sub.9 are as defined for R.sub.1 or are C.sub.13-21 alkyl, C.sub.2-21 alkenyl or substituted aromatic hydrocarbyl, R.sub.3, R.sub.5, R.sub.8 and R.sub.10 are as defined for R.sub.4 or are hydrogen or a pair of R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 or R.sub.8 together with the carbon atom to which they are joined forms a cycloalkyl ring and X is O or S, are stabilizers for halogen containing resins, especially PVC.

An ester, which is a costabiliser of mono ordi organotin stabilisers for halogen containing resins, is of formula ##EQU1## wherein x and y are 1-6, R.sub.4 and R.sub.9 are alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or optionally substituted aromatic aralkyl or aralkenyl hydrocarbyl group, R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 are as R.sub.4 or R.sub.9 or is hydrogen or R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 form a cycloalkyl ring. The organotin stabilisers are carboxylates, mercapto carboxylates, carboxylate ester from diacids, sulphides, mercaptides or thiostannoic acids.
