The conventional additives are added, for example, in concentrations of 0.01 to 10 %, based on the total weight of material to be stabilized.
The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib and if desired other additives are incorporated into the organic material by known methods; for example, the incorporation into the polymeric material can be caIried out before or during shaping or by applying the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymeric material, if desired with subsequent evaporation of the solvent. The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib can also be added in the form of a masterbatch, which contains these, for example, in a concentration of 2.5 to 25 % by weight, to the materials to be stabilized.
The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib can also be added before or during the polymerization or before the crosslinking.
2 ~ 2 2 The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib can be incorporated in the pure forrn or in a form encapsulated in waxes, oils or polymers into the material to be stabilized.
The materials stabilized in this way can be used in widely varying forms, for example as films, fibres, tapes, moulding composidons or profiles, or as binders for surface coatings, adhesives or putty.
The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib can be prepared by processes analogous to known processes, for example by reacdng a diglycerol with a compound of the formula m uo~x-~l-Z (m) o in which Rl, R2 and X are as defined above and Z is, for example, Cl-C4alkoxy, hydroxyl or chlorine, in the presence of a catalyst.

In this case, the reacdon is preferably carried out in an organic solvent, for example benzene, toluene, xylene, dimethylformamide and the like. It is furthermore advantageous for the reactants to be introduced into the reacdon vessel in an inert gas, for example nitrogen or argon, and for the alcohol fonned during the reacdon to be distilled off. The reacdon mixture can be further heated, for example, at 1 80-220C under a pressure of 10-1013 mbar for 8-20 hours to bring the reacdon to completion.
If Z is hydroxyl, an acid, for example p-toluenesulfonic acid, is advantageously used as the catalyst. If Z is chlorine, it is advantageous for the reaction to be carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor, for example pyridine, triethylamine, NaOH or KOH. In this case, the reaction can be carried out, for example, at a temperature of -10 to 150C.

Example 3: Stabilization of polypropylene 100 parts of polypropylene powder containing 0.1 % of calcium stearate are mixed with 0.3 % of dilauryl thiodipropionate and 0.1 % of the stabilizer shown in Table 1 and the mixture is then kneaded at 200C for 10 minutes in a Brabender Plastograph. The composidon thus obtained is pressed to sheets 1 mm thick in a press at a surfacetemperature of 260C, and strips 1 cm wide and 10 cm long are cut from these sheets. One or more such strips from each sheet are suspended in a circulating air oven heated to 135C or 149C and observed at regular intervals of dme. Oxidadve decomposition of these strips can be recognized by a yellow discoloration starting as a circle. The duration of dme in days before decomposidon occurs is a measure of the stability of the sample.

If Z is Cl-C4alkoxy it is advantageous to use dibutyltin oxide, dtanium tetraisopropoxide, LiNH2, LiH, LiOA, KOA or NaOA, in which A is, for example, hydrogen, Cl-Cloalkylor a phenyloxy group which is unsubstituted or substituted by 1 to 3 Cl-Cloalkyl radicals, as catalysts. In this case, the reacdon is preferably carried out in an organic solvent, for example benzene, toluene, xylene, dimethylformamide and the like. It is furthermore advantageous for the reactants to be introduced into the reacdon vessel in an inert gas, for example nitrogen or argon, and for the alcohol fonned during the reacdon to be distilled off. The reacdon mixture can be further heated, for example, at 1 80-220C under a pressure of 10-1013 mbar for 8-20 hours to bring the reacdon to completion.
If Z is hydroxyl, an acid, for example p-toluenesulfonic acid, is advantageously used as the catalyst. If Z is chlorine, it is advantageous for the reaction to be carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor, for example pyridine, triethylamine, NaOH or KOH. In this case, the reaction can be carried out, for example, at a temperature of -10 to 150C.

The reaction mixture is cooled and the excess methyl 3-(3',5'-di-tert-butyl-4'-hydroxyphenyl)propionate employed is distilled off under a high vacuum (2.67 x 10-5 bar) at 123-127C. Purification of the crude product by column chromatography gives 77.5 g (= 83 % of theory) of a colourlessamorphous powder having a melting point of 57C.

Example 3: Stabilization of polypropylene 100 parts of polypropylene powder containing 0.1 % of calcium stearate are mixed with 0.3 % of dilauryl thiodipropionate and 0.1 % of the stabilizer shown in Table 1 and the mixture is then kneaded at 200C for 10 minutes in a Brabender Plastograph. The composidon thus obtained is pressed to sheets 1 mm thick in a press at a surfacetemperature of 260C, and strips 1 cm wide and 10 cm long are cut from these sheets. One or more such strips from each sheet are suspended in a circulating air oven heated to 135C or 149C and observed at regular intervals of dme. Oxidadve decomposition of these strips can be recognized by a yellow discoloration starting as a circle. The duration of dme in days before decomposidon occurs is a measure of the stability of the sample.
