Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a colour-stable, aqueous dimethylaminoacetonitrile solution from a formaldehyde source, dimethylamine and hydrocyanic acid, wherein the reaction mixture contains 2,4-diamino-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine(benzoguanamine) in a concentration of from 0.001 to 5% by weight, based on formaldehyde, prior to the reaction and the starting substances are used stoichiometrically or in a ratio of 0.98-1.02 mol of formaldehyde and 0.95-1.10 mol of dimethylamine per mol of hydrocyanic acid. The resulting product remains colour-stable without a further purification step even after prolonged storage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds of the formula (III) in which the substituents are as defined in the description, to a process for their preparation and to mixtures with other compounds. The compounds of the formula (III) are suitable for stabilizing organic material against the effect of light and heat.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stabilizer mixture prepared by partially condensing PCl3 with 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-dihydroxy-5,5′-di-tert-butyldiphenyl sulfide, where the phosphorus content is from 2 to 4% by weight and the content of 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-dihydroxy-5,5′-di-tert-butyldiphenyl sulfide is from 0.5 to 50% by weight. The stabilizer mixture has very good solubility in organic solvents and in the polymer and has very good stabilizing action.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of compounds of the formula (I) where the substituents are as defined in the description as a stabilizer for organic material against the harmful effect of light, oxygen and heat.
