Abstract

AbstractMetal chlorides formed from metal stabilizers under processing conditions have an influence on the thermal stability of PVC. Zinc chloride, e. g., has a strong destabilizing effect, whereas lead chloride behaves almost indifferently. Alkyltin chlorides however, have a stabilizing effect in as much as they cause a significant retardation of the thermal dehydrochlorination rate of PVC. Using 1‐chlorobutene‐2 as model substance, a chloro allyl isomerization could be proved caused by organotin chlorides under certain conditions. These results support a complex chemical isomerization concept to explain the stabilizing effect of organotin chlorides on PVC.
