## Abstract

A composition of polyvinylchloride containing the usual additives and a plate out preventing, chemically or physically acting drying agent. The drying agent is preferably an expanded and finely ground aluminiumsilicate, having a high oil absorption and water absorption and preferably low amounts of earth alkaline metals. The plate out preventing drying agent is incorporated in a normal additive composition in order to avoid handling of voluminous masses of drying agent. This incorporation is executed by mixing with a mixture of additives or during the chemical reaction for preparing the additive composition.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A plastic composition incorporating additives to prevent plate out on molding tools and extruders consisting essentially of particles of polymers of vinylchloride and vinylidene chloride and copolymers thereof and additives selected from the group comprising stabilizers and lubricating agents wherein at least one of said stabilizers and lubricating agents is a metal compound, free of liquids and blowing agents, and a drying agent capable of binding water at temperatures greater than 120.degree. C. and pressures greater than 10 atmospheres and capable of preventing ionization of hydrochloric acid at said temperatures and pressures, said drying agent being an expanded and finely ground aluminum silicate.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

Plastic composition according to claim 1, in which the drying agent has a particle size of less than 10 micron.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

Plastic composition according to claim 1, in which the plastic composition contains 0,05 parts to 5 parts preferably 0,1 to 1 part of drying agent per 100 parts of polymer.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

Plastic composition according to claim 1, in which the plastic being a substantially plasticizer free polyvinylchloride, contains at most 0,8%, b.w. 0,5% b.w. respectively of said drying agent.
