Abstract
Abstract Improved chain-stopped polyester plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride homopolymers and copolymers are provided. The plasticizers show little or no tendency to migrate from PVC, yet they are readily processable with the PVC. While being extremely compatible with PVC the present plasticizers have very low affinity for ABS and polystyrene resins and therefore can be used in applications where plasticized PVC comes in contact with these other resins.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
98 words
An improved polymer composition comprising polyvinyl chloride homopolymer or polyvinyl chloride copolymer and 10 to 150 parts by weight per 100 parts vinyl resin of a chain-terminated polyester having an average molecular weight between about 2,000 and 5,000 and 210° F viscosity between 200 and 250 centistokes, said polyester composition obtained by the esterification of (a) an aliphatic saturated dicarboxylic acid containing 6 to 10 carbon atoms, (b) 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpropyl-2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpropionate having the structural formula ##EQU2##and (c) about 2 to 15 mole percent, based on the total acids of an aromatic monocarboxylic acid containing from 7 to 20 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
98 words
An improved polymer composition comprising polyvinyl chloride homopolymer or polyvinyl chloride copolymer and 10 to 150 parts by weight per 100 parts vinyl resin of a chain-terminated polyester having an average molecular weight between about 2,000 and 5,000 and 210° F viscosity between 200 and 250 centistokes, said polyester composition obtained by the esterification of (a) an aliphatic saturated dicarboxylic acid containing 6 to 10 carbon atoms, (b) 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpropyl-2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpropionate having the structural formula ##EQU2##and (c) about 2 to 15 mole percent, based on the total acids of an aromatic monocarboxylic acid containing from 7 to 20 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
