Abstract
Abstract An extrudable composition comprising hydrocarbon polymer, organophosphite or organophosphate compound and fluorocarbon polymer. The organophosphite or organophosphate and the fluorocarbon polymer are present in the composition in such relative proportions and concentrations as to reduce the occurrence of melt defects during the extrusion of said thermoplastic hydrocarbon polymer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
121 words
A processing additive composition suitable for addition to thermoplastic polymers to improve extension characterics consisting essentially of fluorocarbon polymer and organophosphite, organophosphate, or blend thereof such that the weight of said fluorocarbon polymer in said composition and the weight of said organophosphite, organophosphate, or blend thereof in said composition are in a ratio of 1/1 to 1/5, the fluorcarbon polymer and organophosphite, organophosphate or blend thereof, being the predominant component of said processing additive composition and the concentration of said fluorocarbon polymer in said composition is 14 to 50 weight percent, and the concentration of said organophosphite, organophosphate or blend thereof in said composition is 50 to 83 weight percent, where said weight percent is based on total additive composition weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
121 words
A processing additive composition suitable for addition to thermoplastic polymers to improve extension characterics consisting essentially of fluorocarbon polymer and organophosphite, organophosphate, or blend thereof such that the weight of said fluorocarbon polymer in said composition and the weight of said organophosphite, organophosphate, or blend thereof in said composition are in a ratio of 1/1 to 1/5, the fluorcarbon polymer and organophosphite, organophosphate or blend thereof, being the predominant component of said processing additive composition and the concentration of said fluorocarbon polymer in said composition is 14 to 50 weight percent, and the concentration of said organophosphite, organophosphate or blend thereof in said composition is 50 to 83 weight percent, where said weight percent is based on total additive composition weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 1 further comprising other adjuvants which are added to thermoplastic hydrocarbon polymers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said fluorocarbon polymer is selected from the group consisting of copolymers derived from fluorinated monomer and one or more additional fluorinated or non-fluorinated monomer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said fluorocarbon polymer is selected from the group consisting of homopolymers derived from fluorinated monomers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein said fluorocarbon polymer is polyvinylidene fluoride.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 3 wherein said fluorocarbon polymer is a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, and tetrafluoroethylene.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
105 words

Claim 9
Dependent Claim
40 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said organophosphite or organophosphate or blend thereof is selected from the group consisting of tris(2,4-di-tert.-butylphenyl)phosphite, bis(2,4-di-tert.-butylphenyl)pentaerythritoldiphosphite, tris(4-nonylphenyl)phosphite, tris[4-(1-phenylethyl)phenyl]phosphite, tetrakis(2,4-di-tert.-butylphenyl)-4,4,-bisphenylenediphosphite, tris(4-methylphenyl) phosphite, tris(4-chlorophenyl) phosphite, tris(2,4-di-tert.-butylphenyl) phosphate, tris(4-methylphenyl)phosphate, tris(4-nonylphenyl)phosphate, tris(4-chlorophenyl)phosphate, 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate, and blends thereof.
