An improved antioxidant composition, especially suitable for irradiated or fire-retardant plastics, comprising a mixture of a hydroxy aromatic compound containing sulfur and organic phosphonate compounds. |
|
DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1. An antioxidant composition suitable for use with polymers subject to oxidative degradation, comprising a mixture of a non-metallic hydroxy aromatic compound having at least one sulfur atom attached to an aromatic carbocyclic ring and an organic phosphonate compound having the general formula ##STR4## wherein any two or all three of R, R', and R" may be the same or different and may contain further phosphonic moieties and wherein R is independently selected from the group consisting of substituted and unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkylaryl and triazine and wherein R' and R" are independently selected from the group consisting of, substituted and unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, alkylaryl, aralkyl and triazine wherein R' and R" can be linked together to form a ring. 2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the sulfur atom containing hydroxy aromatic compound is a compound of the general formula R. sub. 1 --S--R. sub. 2 wherein R. sub. 1 and R. sub. 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of substituted and unsubstituted phenols and naphthols. 3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is 4,4'-thiobis(6-t-butyl-m-cresol). 4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is a mixture of oligomers of 4,4'-thiobis(6-t-butyl-m-cresol). 5. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is 4,4'-thiobis(6-t-butyl-o-cresol). 6. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is 1,1'-thiobis(2-naphthol). 7. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is 2,2'-thiobis(4-methyl-6-t-butyl phenol). 8. The composition of claim 1 wherein the hydroxy aromatic compound is the reaction product of phosphorus oxychloride and 4,4'-thiobis(6-t-butyl-m-cresol). 9. The composition of claim 1 wherein the organic phosphonate is an organic ester of 3-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylbenzylphosphonate. 10. The composition of claim 9 wherein the organic phosphonate is di-n-octadecyl-3-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylbenzylphosphonate
