Halogen-containing polymer compositions containing a heat stabilizer comprising a latent mercaptan, a zinc salt, and a free mercaptan as a separate entity are protected during processing by the degradation products of the latent (i.e., blocked) mercaptan. A free mercaptan is among those products. The separate free mercaptan (i.e., an alien free mercaptan) enhances the activity of the latent mercaptan in a synergistic manner.
