Abstract
Stabilizing compositions comprising at least one triaryl phosphite, trialkyl phosphite or mixtures thereof and at least one modified lignin, the weight ratio of the phosphite to modified lignin is from 97/3 to 10/90. The modified lignins are produced by heat treating lignins in the presence of a nucleophile, such that a portion of the original guaiacyl structures are converted to catechols via a demethylation reaction. Elastomers may be protected against atmospheric degradation by the addition thereto of 0.01 to 5.0 parts by weight, preferably 0.25 to 2.0 parts, per 100 parts of elastomer of the stabilizing composition.
