Abstract

A method for stabilizing organic polymers against copper-catalyzed oxidative decomposition by means of N,N-bis-salicyloyl hydrazine as a metal deactivator is described wherein dust development of the metal deactivator is precluded with certainty and negative property changes of the stabilized organic polymers are avoided. For this purpose, it is provided that a paste which contains finely-crystalline N,N'-bis-salicyloyl hydrazine in fine distribution in a liquid to wax-like aliphatic hydrocarbon of low volatility is worked into the polymer. The method is particularly well suited for stabilizing polyolefins for cable and wire insulation.
