The pellets obtained respectively in Examples 13 and 14 and Comparative Example 7 were subjected to a retention MFR test for evaluation of processability in operation in extrusion processing. In the test, the temperature in a cylinder of Melt Indexer (L217-E14011, manufactured by Techno Seven Ltd.) was adjusted to 270° C., a thermoplastic polymer composition was allowed to reside in the cylinder for 30 minutes, then, MFR under a load of 2.16 kg was measured, according to JIS K 7210. The results are shown in Table 4. Larger the MFR value, more excellent the processing stability under static condition.
The processing stability improvement rate in Table 4 is a value calculated according to the following formula.
(Processing stability improvement rate)=(MFR value measured in example−MFR value measured in Comparative Example 4)/MFR value measured in Comparative Example 4×100
Zero point one (0.1) part of tris(2,4-di-t-butylphenyl)phosphite (Irgafos 168 manufactured by Ciba Japan K.K., registered trademark) as the compound (2) and 0.01 part of mannitol as the compound (3) were mixed, to produce a stabilizer composition.
A stabilizer composition was produced in the same manner as in Example 15, excepting that, in Example 15, sorbitol was used instead of mannitol.
One hundred (100) parts of a polypropylene manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd. and the stabilizer composition obtained in Example 15 were dry-blended, then, kneaded by using a 30 mm Ø single screw extruder (manufactured by Tanabe Plastics Machinery Co., Ltd., VS30-28 type extruder) at 230° C. and a screw rotation speed of 50 rpm, to obtain pellets of a thermoplastic polymer composition.
Pellets of a thermoplastic polymer composition were obtained in the same manner as in Example 17, excepting that, in Example 17, the stabilizer composition obtained in Example 16 was used instead of the stabilizer composition obtained in Example 15.
Pellets of a thermoplastic polymer composition were obtained in the same manner as in Example 17, excepting that, in Example 17, 0.1 part of Irgafos 168 was used instead of the stabilizer composition obtained in Example 35.
The pellets obtained respectively in Examples 17 and 18 and Comparative Example 5 were subjected to a retention MFR test for evaluation of processability in operation in extrusion processing. In the test, the temperature in a cylinder of Melt Indexer (L217-E14011, manufactured by Techno Seven Ltd.) was adjusted to 270° C., a thermoplastic polymer composition was filled in the cylinder and MFR under a load of 2.16 kg was measured, then, a thermoplastic polymer composition was allowed to reside in the cylinder for 30 minutes, then, MFR under a load of 2.16 kg was measured, according to JIS K 7210. The results are shown in Table 5.
The MFR rising suppression rate in Table 5 is a value calculated according to the following formula. In the case of a polypropylene, larger the MFR rising suppression rate, more excellent the processability, since decomposition progresses owing to heat in processing.
MFR rising suppression rate (%)=(MFR value after retention for 30 minutes in Comparative Example 5−MFR value after retention for 30 minutes in example)/MFR value after retention for 30 minutes in Comparative Example 5×100
