Abstract:
A lead-free composition comprising: (A) Polyvinyl chloride (PVC); (B) Bioplasticizer; (C) Calcium Carbonate; and (D) Calcined clay; with the combined weight of the calcium carbonate and calcined clay in the composition in the range of 1 to 15 weight percent, and the weight ratio of calcium carbonate to calcined clay in the range of 15:85 to 85:15. In one embodiment the invention is an insulation sheath for a wire or cable made from the lead-free composition described in the preceding embodiment. In one embodiment the invention is a wire or cable comprising the insulation sheath of the preceding embodiment.
Abstract:
A composition comprising a composition of an ethylene-based thermoplastic polymer comprising high density polyethylene (HDPE) blended with a modifier component, an optional blowing agent, optionally with carbon black and/or one or more additives, to make foamed articles.

Abstract:
Polymeric compositions comprising a vinyl chloride resin, a bioplasticizer, and antimony trioxide. The antimony trioxide comprises arsenic in an amount of 300 ppm or less, lead in an amount of 410 ppm or less, and iron in an amount of 10 ppm or less, based on the entire weight of the antimony trioxide. Such polymeric compositions can be employed in a variety of articles of manufacture, such as coatings for wires and cables.
