Abstract
Abstract Improved vinyl asbestos compositions comprising a vinyl chloride resin, plasticizer stabilizer, a hydrocarbon resin, asbestos, fillers, pigments and colorants and heat stabilizers wherein the improvement comprises the inclusion of a stabilizing amount of an anti-pinking additive selected from the group consisting of mono- and dicarboxylic acids having from 5 to 18 carbon atoms. In a preferred embodiment there is described an improved vinyl asbestos tile formula wherein the anti-pinking additive found most effective comprises neodecanoic acid and diethanolamine neodecanoate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
77 words
A vinyl asbestos composition comprising a vinyl resin, asbestos, fillers, a stabilizing amount of from 0.1% to 2.5% by weight based on the weight of said composition of melamine and an effective amount of from 0.01 to 10% by weight based on the weight of said composition of an anti-pinking additive selected from the group consisting of trialkyl acetic acids having the formula ##EQU2## wherein R, R' and R" are alkyl groups having from 1-18 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
77 words
A vinyl asbestos composition comprising a vinyl resin, asbestos, fillers, a stabilizing amount of from 0.1% to 2.5% by weight based on the weight of said composition of melamine and an effective amount of from 0.01 to 10% by weight based on the weight of said composition of an anti-pinking additive selected from the group consisting of trialkyl acetic acids having the formula ##EQU2## wherein R, R' and R" are alkyl groups having from 1-18 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein said vinyl resin is a vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein said anti-pinking additive is a trialkyl acetic acid where R, R' and R" are alkyl groups having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein said anti-pinking additive is neodecanoic acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein the amount of neodecanoic acid employed is in the range of from 3 to 5 weight per cent based on the total weight of the composition.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
21 words
