  • Patent number: 5304589
    Abstract: Oxidatively stabilized polyolefin polymers containing an antioxidant are made more resistant to loss of antioxidant by converting at least some of the antioxidant comprising a polymer of dicyclopentadiene and a phenolic compound into a form non extractable with cyclohexane. The conversion is preferably by reaction in the melt phase in the presence of a radical initiator. Addition of organotin esters, sulphides, oxides or thioethers reduces the color.

  • Patent number: 5248762
    Abstract: Cyclic polyoxymethylene having a number-average molecular weight of 500 to 5,000 is obtained by solid state cyclization reaction of an alkalidegradative linear oxymethylene homopolymer in the presence of a medium containing a cationic catalyst.The cyclization is effected at 10.degree. to 150.degree. C. for 1 to 500 minutes in an organic liquid medium.The reaction mixture obtained by the cyclization is treated with an alkaline medium to hydrolyze and remove away unreacted linear polyoxymethylene homopolymer, and isolate the cyclic polyoxymethylene.The product has a sharp molecular weight distribution and is useful as a resin improver.
