Lead compounds were among the first materials to be used as Stabilizers to prevent the
decomposition of PVC.
Typical applications of lead Stabilizers include recyclable PVC profiles, pipes and cables with a long
service life.
Primary lead Stabilizers are generally used in conjunction with lead soaps, calcium soaps, lubricants
and antioxidants.
Benefits:
• Excellent long-term heat stability
• Low solubility in water, no leaking into the environment
• No odour during processing and in the final product
• No detrimental effects on the Vicat softening temperature of rigid PVC
Disadvantages:
• Lead compounds in biologically available form are chronically toxic
• Discolouration in contact with sulphur-containing compounds
