Abstract:
Stabilizer compositions for stabilizing materials against degradation due to thermal and ultraviolet light exposure are disclosed herein. In some instances, the stabilizer compositions include an ortho-hydroxyl tris-aryl-s-triazine compound; a hindered amine light stabilizer compound; a hindered hydroxybenzoate compound; a phosphite compound, an acid scavenger and/or thioester; and a hindered phenol antioxidant compound
Abstract:
Resin masterbatch compositions are provided as closed end pellets having a core including at least one additive and an outer layer comprising a polymer encapsulating the core, in which the thickness of the outer layer if from 0.001 mm to 1 cm. A stabilized composition is prepared from an organic material to be stabilized and the resin masterbatch composition. A process for producing the resin masterbatch composition includes co-extruding in tubular form a core material encapsulated by an outer layer, wherein the core material comprises at least one additive, and the outer layer comprises a polymer, to form a filled tube; passing the filled tube into a sealing device that cuts the filled tube into multiple discrete segments seals and simultaneously seals each end of each discrete segment, thereby forming closed end pellets; and cooling the closed end pellets.

Abstract:

Abstract:
Rotational molding processes for producing hollow articles include the steps of: a) filling a mold with a polymer composition comprising: i) an organic polymer; and ii) a rotational molding densification accelerator (RMDA) selected from the group consisting of alkoxylated fatty alcohols, alkoxylated fatty esters, alkoxylated fatty amines, alkoxylated fatty amides, and combinations thereof; b) rotating the mold around at least one axis while heating the mold in an oven, thereby fusing the composition and spreading it to the walls of the mold; c) cooling the mold; and d) opening the mold; and e) removing the hollow article from the mold. The rotational molding processes using such polymer composition results in faster densification, which allows for reduction in overall cycle times for making the hollow articles.
