Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a polyolefin compsn. which is freed from lowering in the quality during molding by using a stabilizer which is highly safe and has an excellent thermal stabilization effect, by blending a polyolefin with a licorice extract. CONSTITUTION:A compsn. is obtd. by blending a polyolefin with a licorice extract. Examples of the polyolefin are alpha-olefin homopolymers and random or block copolymers of two or more alpha-olefins. Copolymers of the alpha-olefin with an unsaturated compd. such as a conjugated diene, a non-conjugated diene, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, vinyl acetate, etc., can be used. The polyolefin may be used as a blend. The licorice extract is obtd. by extracting a licorice and purifying the extract. For example, the licorice extract can be prepd. by extracting crushed licorice with methyl chloride and drying the extract in a vacuum. When the extract is used in an amount of 0.001-10pts.wt. per 100pts.wt. polyolefin, a thermal stabilization effect can be exhibited.

<Prior art> Polyolefin molding is usually carried out at high temperatures of 200°C or higher, sometimes close to 300°C, so chemical effects such as heat, oxygen (air), and mechanical effects such as shear force can cause a decrease in molecular weight. This results in deterioration of mechanical properties and coloring. It is well known that stabilizers are usually added to prevent quality deterioration during molding.
