Abstract

A polyolefin plastic composition having improved transparency is provided which comprises a polymer selected from aliphatic polyolefins and copolymers containing at least one aliphatic olefin and one or more ethylenically unsaturated aliphatic comonomers, and a di-acetal of sorbitol in an amount sufficient to improve transparency; said di-acetal of sorbitol having the structure: ##STR1## wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are selected from hydrogen, lower alkyl, hydroxy, methoxy, mono- and di-alkylamino, nitro and halogen, with the proviso that at least one of R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is chlorine or bromine.
