Abstract: Halogen-containing polymer compositions comprising a latent mercaptan-containing heat stabilizer composition substantially free from the offensive odor typically associated with mercaptans are protected during processing by the degradation products of the latent (i.e., blocked) mercaptan which include a free mercaptan. Other products of the degradation are believed to include carbocations of the blocking moiety which are stabilized by a molecular structure in which the electron deficiency is shared by several groups. The latent mercaptan may be the sole heat stabilizer additive but the free mercaptan released during processing may also synergize the activity of metal-based heat stabilizers such as metal salts and organometallic stabilizers such as organotin carboxylates and mercaptides in the polymer composition. The odor of primary mercaptan-containing heat stabilizers in halogenated polymer compositions is masked by a small amount of a latent mercaptan.

Abstract: Flexible and semi-rigid vinyl chloride resin compositions comprising a combination of a latent mercaptan and a zinc salt of oxidized polyethylene (a zinc ionomer) as a heat stabilizer are substantially free from the offensive odor typically associated with mercaptans and are protected during processing by the degradation products of the latent mercaptan and the zinc ionomer. The oxidized polyethylene is split out from the ionomer to act as an adhesion promoter for aqueous inks and paints, and the residual zinc carboxylate functions as a co-stabilizer with the latent mercaptan in the composition. The latent mercaptan is exemplified by a 2-S-(tetrahydropyranyl)thioalkanol, a carboxylic acid ester thereof, a 2-S-(tetrahydropyranyl)-thiocarboxylic acid, an ester thereof, and the furanyl homologs of each.

Abstract: An aqueous solution that will prevent rust, corrosion and scale on metal surfaces that includes potassium sorbate at percentages above 0.3%. This aqueous solution is effective at pH 4.5. However, its optimum effectiveness as a rust preventive is at pH 6.0 and above. The solution can be produced in a concentrated form and then diluted with tap or deionized water. The potassium sorbate solution has reduced conductivity and reduced oxygen content, both relative to tap water. This is believed to be the technical basis for its ability to prevent rust. Furthermore, the combination of lower conductivity and reduced oxygen content renders the potassium sorbate solution less viable for microbiological growth which prevents the solution from becoming rancid when it is used in re-circulating water systems. This also permits the use of toxic biocides to be eliminated in re-circulatory water systems, which are often used to reduce and control microbiological growth.
