Abstract
This invention relates to the use of indium compounds as thermal stabilizers for vinyl halide resins. Very small additions of indium compounds to vinyl halide resins, with or without the inclusion of other stabilizers, have been found to contribute marked improvements in resistance to high temperature discoloration. For example, additions sufficient to provide less than 100 ppm of indium based upon the weight of said resin are particularly effective in helping to maintain original color over a longer period of time at elevated temperatures such as are encountered during hot processing and fabricating operations.
