Patent number: 5229442Abstract: Stabilizing compositions for organic polymers, composed of mixtures of at least one liquid phenolic antioxidant and at least one aminic antioxidant, subjected to thermal treatment, are characterized by their stabilizing capacity which is considerably higher than that of either single components or of corresponding untreated mixtures.These stabilizing compositions can be used in all field where the single components of the mixtures are generally used and, preferably, in the stabilization of organic polymers normally subject to deterioration due to oxidation processes.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 1992Date of Patent: July 20, 1993Assignee: Enichem Synthesis S.p.A.Inventors: Fabio Broussard, Carlo Busetto

Patent number: 5219892Abstract: Polyether polyols and polyurethane foams are stabilized by including therein a stabilizer composition of (a) tetrakis[methylene(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate)]methane and (b) a reaction product of diphenylamine and diisobutylene wherein the molar ratio of the amine to the diisobutylene is 1:1.1 to 1:2.5. The stabilizer composition may contain a third synergistic component, phenothiazine or certain alkyl derivatives of phenothiazine. The stabilizer composition may further contain trihydrocarbyl phosphite to stabilize the color of same.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 1992Date of Patent: June 15, 1993Assignee: R. T. Vanderbilt Company, Inc.Inventor: Richard A. Suhoza

Patent number: 5120779Abstract: A new class of antiozonant compounds, namely tris(N-alkyl-p-phenylenediamino)-1,3,5-triazine compounds, are incorporated into thermosetting compositions having at least one highly unsaturated rubbery polymer and at least one other elastomer having lesser unsaturation, such as EPDM. Thermosetting compositions are most useful as tire sidewall compositions which may be preferably cured with blends of organic peroxide and sulfur donor accelerators.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 1990Date of Patent: June 9, 1992Assignee: Uniroyal Chemical Company, Inc.Inventors: Robert J. Cornell, Edward L. Wheeler, Russell A. Mazzeo, Sung W. Hong
