Abstract
Abstract An anti-yellowing additive is provided for environmentally acceptable stabilized vinyl chloride polymer compositions from which arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, lead, mercury, and thallium are substantially excluded, comprising at least one overbased sulfonate or phenolate compound of lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, zinc, titanium, aluminum, zirconium, or tin, and a 1,3-diketone compound having 5 to 30 carbon atoms, which is a cyclic or open-chain 1,3-diketone or a lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, zinc, aluminum, tin or zirconium salt thereof.
