Abstract: A method for producing a stabilizer composition for a polymer, particularly a polymer containing halogen such as polyvinyl chloride, in which components for forming the stabilizer composition are mixed in an extruder and continuously discharged therefrom, in which an impact modifier is admixed. A correspondingly produced stabilizer composition and the use of a planetary roller extruder to produce a stabilizer composition.

Abstract: A method for producing a stabilizer composition for a polymer and a stabilizer composition produced by the method. At least one carboxylic acid is reacted with at least one metal compound, such as at least one metal hydroxide and/or at least one metal oxide and/or at least one metal carbonate, thereby forming a metal carboxylate of the carboxylic acid. The reaction of the carboxylic acid with the metal compound is carried out in a continuous manner in an extruder while reaction water being formed is discharged out of the extruder.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a thermoplastic polymer for additive manufacturing, wherein the thermoplastic polymer is derived from a chlorinated monomer unit, wherein the thermoplastic polymer has a melt flow rate (MFR) suitable for additive manufacturing. The present disclosure is also directed to a method of making a 3D product formed by additive manufacturing, wherein the 3D product comprises a thermoplastic polymer derived from a chlorinated monomer unit or a thermoplastic composition comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer derived from a chlorinated monomer unit; and at least one stabiliser, wherein the thermoplastic polymer or composition has a MFR suitable for additive manufacturing.
