Abstract
Abstract The tendency of dispersions containing trialkyltin fluorides in organic liquids to agglomerate is avoided by using as the dispersion medium specified organic liquids in combination with from 0.5 to 10%, based on the weight of the dispersion, of specified inorganic compounds. The choice of both organic liquid and inorganic compounds is critical to achieving long-term stability of the resultant dispersion.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
214 words
A stable thixotropic dispersion, said dispersion consisting essentially of: (a) from 40 to 70% by weight of a trialkyltin fluoride of the formula R 3 SnF wherein R is alkyl containing from 2 to 12 carbon atoms; (b) from 20 to 60% by weight of at least one organic liquid having a kauri butanol value of 96 or less and selected from the group consisting of alcohols containing from 4 to 12 carbon atoms, aliphatic hydrocarbons containing from 5 to 12 carbon atoms and aromatic hydrocarbons; (c) from 0.5 to 10% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of: (1) the lithium and sodium salts of p-toluenesulfonic acid and phenylphosphonic acid, (2) nitric acid salts of calcium, magnesium, sodium, lithium, iron and zinc, (3) salts of p-toluenesulfonic or phenylphosphonic acid and an element selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium, (4) the chlorides of metallic elements selected from the group consisting of divalent tin, divalent copper, silver, gold and the elements in groups II-A, II-B, IV-B, V-A, VI-B, VII-B and VIII of the periodic table and (5) carboxylic acid salts of lead, manganese(ous), zirconium, barium and strontium, wherein said carboxylic acid is selected from the group consisting of acetic, propionic, butyric, hexoic, heptanoic, cyclohexanecarboxylic and benzoic acids.
