Abstract

Abstract There is described a process for for neutralizing halogen and/or acids released during processing of polymeric materials having thermally releasable acidic components and/or additives, which may release halogen and/or acids during processing to final products. The composition of matter is selected from a genus of multimetallic compounds having a hydroxyl content.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 146 words
In the processing of polymeric materials containg halogen and/or acid components and/or which incorpcate additives containing halogen and/or acid componts the improvement which comprises adding to the pomeric material during processing a sufficient amount of a composition having elements and groups and a rati of the elements and groups contained therein represented by the general formula A and are each one or more metals having valences of a and respectively; a has a value of 1 or 2; b has a value of 2 or 3, w, x and y are positive numbers or fracticns in which y is >2, and the ratio of x/w ≧1; z=0 to c ; C is one or more anions having a valence of c; and c has a value of 1, 2, or 3; such that ary hydrogen halides or other acids produced during said processing are effectively neutralized.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 146 words
In the processing of polymeric materials containg halogen and/or acid components and/or which incorpcate additives containing halogen and/or acid componts the improvement which comprises adding to the pomeric material during processing a sufficient amount of a composition having elements and groups and a rati of the elements and groups contained therein represented by the general formula A and are each one or more metals having valences of a and respectively; a has a value of 1 or 2; b has a value of 2 or 3, w, x and y are positive numbers or fracticns in which y is >2, and the ratio of x/w ≧1; z=0 to c ; C is one or more anions having a valence of c; and c has a value of 1, 2, or 3; such that ary hydrogen halides or other acids produced during said processing are effectively neutralized.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 149 words
