Claim 1
Independent Claim
142 words
A polyolefin containing from about 0.01 to about 10 wt. % of an aryl ketone and from about 0.01 to about 10 wt. % of a borate or phosphate ester of an alkanol amine, said aryl ketone having the structure: ##STR2## in which R 1 is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted alkyl, substituted aryl, substituted alkaryl, substituted aralkyl or substituted cycloalkyl radical and R 2 is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, halogen, carboxy, carboalkoxy, substituted alkyl, substituted aryl, substituted alkaryl, substituted aralkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, substituted alkoxy, substituted carboxy and substituted carboalkoxy radical, and in which n is equal to an integer between 0 and 5; and said alkanol amine being the reaction product of an aliphatic amine with one or more equivalents of an olefinic epoxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
