Abstract: Compounds of the formula I ##STR1## wherein Ar.sup.1 and Ar.sup.2 represent unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxy, hydroxyalkyl, allyl, benzyl or a group --O--R.sup.2 -NR.sup.3 R.sup.4, R.sup.2 represents alkylene and --NR.sup.3 R.sup.4 is an open chain or cyclic organic amino group, are effective initiators for the photopolymerization of unsaturated compounds or for the photocrosslinking of polyolefins. They can be obtained by different methods which are in themselves known, in particular by reaction of the corresponding haloalkyl ethers or haloalkyl ketals with primary or secondary amines.

Abstract: The invention entitled "Polymers containing polyalkylpiperidines and use thereof as stabilizers" provides a class of polymers in which groups containing sterically hindered polyalkylpiperidines are linked in the main chain of the polymers via bridging members containing 2-hydroxy-1,3-trimethylene groups.The polymers show superior stabilizing effects for various synthetic polymers such as polyolefins against degradation thereof induced by light and/or heat. The polymers have advantages, as compared with known stabilizer compounds, that they hardly volatile upon processing with heating or during storage of articles containing thereof, and that they are resistant to extraction with solvents from articles containing thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to metal salts of hydroxybenzoic acids which are complexed with a 4-amino-polyalkylpiperidine derivative or to mixed metal salts of a hydroxybenzoic acid and a polyalkylpiperidine carboxylic acid which may be complexed or not with an 4-amino-polyalkylpiperidine. The metal cation may be that of a di- or trivalent metal such as Ni, Co, Al, Zn or Ca. From hydroxybenzoic acids the 3,5-di-tert.butylbenzoic acid is preferred.These salts are valuable light stabilizers for plastics, especially for polyolefins, styrene polymers and polyamides or polyurethanes respectively. The salts show a strong tendency to retain water. For high compatibility with plastics a low water content is of importance.
