Abstrakt: Copper, magnesium, lead, nickel, cobalt, manganese, iron, chromium, cadmium, and barium soaps of the wool wax acid fraction have been tested as stabilizers for plasticized polyvinyl chloride polymers. Barium, cadmium, and lead soaps performed well in the light stability evaluations. In the heat aging tests barium, magnesium, lead, and nickel soaps were superior while cadmium, and manganese soaps performed poorly. The copper, cobalt, iron, and chromium soaps were ineffective. Two tests for stability were employed: an accelerated light aging test and an accelerated heat aging test. Combinations of barium and cadmium soaps were tested for synergistic effects and found to be more effective as stabilizers than the individual soaps. Soaps made from fractions of acids by partitioning the whole wool wax acid fraction were also tested. Neither the hydroxy nor the non-hydroxy acid fraction soaps had as goad stabilizing properties for PVC as those of the whole acid fraction.
