Solid alkylaryl phosphite compositions and methods for manufacturing same

摘要

The invention is directed to various alkylaryl phosphite compositions that ideally are suitable for use as secondary antioxidants in polymers. In one aspect, the phosphite composition comprises a tris(dialkylaryl)phosphite in an amount from 20 to 93 weight percent; and at least one of: a bis(dialkylaryl)monoalkylaryl phosphite; a bis(monoalkylaryl)dialkylaryl phosphite; and a tris(monoalkylaryl)phosphite. The inventive phosphite composition is a solid at ambient conditions. The invention also relates to alkylate compositions and processes for forming such alkylate compositions and such phosphite compositions.
