Abstract
A process for the stabilization of a polymer which is a barium, strontium and/or calcium complex of polyterephthaloyl oxalamidrazone or polydiphenylether-dicarboxylic acid-4,4'-oxalamidrazone wherein the polymer is treated in an acidic to neutral aqueous solution, e.g. at pH of 1 to 7, containing an acid or salt compound selected from the group consisting of oxalic acid, alkali oxalate, alkali sulfite, alkali hydrogen sulfite, alkali dithionite and alkali hydrogen sulfate. The resulting product has a much improved resistance to UV, oxidation and hydrolysis. Such polymers are especially useful in the form of flame-retardant threads, yarns, filaments, fibers, felts, fabrics and the like.
