Abstract
Abstract Olefin polymers stabilized against deterioration caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation. The stabilization is effected by means of an additive which is a hindered five-membered nitrogen ring. The five-membered ring is a substituted pyrrolidine or pyrroline having ester or amide groups. The compounds are characterized by excellent hydrolytic stability.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
80 words
A polymer composition stabilized against deterioration due to ultraviolet light and heat comprising a polyolefin and a minor proportion, sufficient to provide such stabilization, of a five-membered nitrogen ring compound having the structure AOCOR, ACOOR or ACONHR' where A is a 2,2,5,5-tetraalkyl pyrrolidine or pyrroline wherein the alkyl groups are lower alkyl, R is alkyl, alkOCOA or alkCOOA where alk is an alkylene residue of a dicarboxylic or dihydroxy compound, and R' is alkyl or alkNHCOA; or a salt thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
80 words
A polymer composition stabilized against deterioration due to ultraviolet light and heat comprising a polyolefin and a minor proportion, sufficient to provide such stabilization, of a five-membered nitrogen ring compound having the structure AOCOR, ACOOR or ACONHR' where A is a 2,2,5,5-tetraalkyl pyrrolidine or pyrroline wherein the alkyl groups are lower alkyl, R is alkyl, alkOCOA or alkCOOA where alk is an alkylene residue of a dicarboxylic or dihydroxy compound, and R' is alkyl or alkNHCOA; or a salt thereof.
