Abstract

An additive formulation suitable for antistatic modification and improving the electrical conductivity of inanimate organic material, consisting essentially of
(A) from 1 to 50% by weight of an olefin-sulfur dioxide copolymer, (B) from 1 to 50% by weight of a compound which comprises one or more basic nitrogen atoms and has at least one relatively long-chain linear or branched hydrocarbon radical having at least four carbon atoms or an equivalent structural element which ensures the solubility of component (B) in the inanimate organic material, (C) from 0.1 to 30% by weight of an oil-soluble acid and (D) from 1 to 80% by weight of a high-boiling organic solvent which consists of one or more molecule types, where at least 80% by weight of these molecule types have a boiling point of more than 150° C. at standard pressure,

where the sum of all components adds up to 100% by weight.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An additive formulation suitable for antistatic modification and improving the electrical conductivity of inanimate organic material, consisting essentially of
(A) from 1 to 50% by weight of an olefin-sulfur dioxide copolymer,
(B) from 1 to 50% by weight of a compound which comprises one or more basic nitrogen atoms and at least one linear chain or branched hydrocarbon radical having at least four carbon atoms,
(C) from 0.1 to 30% by weight of an oil-soluble acid and
(D) from 1 to 80% by weight of an organic solvent which comprises at least 80% by weight of a mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons having from 9 to 20 carbon atoms, where at least 80% by weight of the organic solvent compounds have a boiling point of more than 150° C. at standard pressure,
wherein the sum of components (A) to (D) is 100% by weight,
the compound (B) does not comprise a free hydroxyl group, and
a flash point of the additive formulation is not less than 62° C.

2. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , consisting essentially of
(A) from 10 to 30% by weight of component (A),
(B) from 10 to 30% by weight of component (B),
(C) from 2 to 15% by weight of component (C) and
(D) from 40 to 78% by weight of component (D).

3. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which component (A) is a copolymer of sulfur dioxide with one or more linear or branched 1-olefins having from 2 to 24 carbon atoms.

4. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which component (A) has a number-average molecular weight M n of from 2000 to 1 000 000.

5. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which component (A) comprises less than 15 mol % of olefin not converted in the copolymerization with the sulfur dioxide.

6. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which component (B) is an α-olefin-maleimide copolymer having at least one basic nitrogen atom.

7. The additive formulation according to claim 6 , in which component (B) is obtainable by free-radical polymerization of one or more linear or branched α-olefins having from 6 to 50 carbon atoms with maleic anhydride and subsequent reaction with one or more aliphatic polyamines.

8. The additive formulation according to claim 6 , in which component (B) has a weight-average molecular weight M w of from 500 to 50 000.

9. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which component (C) is an organic sulfonic acid which has a hydrocarbyl radical having from 6 to 40 carbon atoms.

10. The additive formulation according to claim 1 , in which the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture of component (D) are compounds having from 9 to 14 carbon atoms.

11. A process for preparing the additive formulation according to claim 1 , which comprises first mixing components (A) and (C) homogeneously with one another in the presence of at least a portion of the high-boiling organic solvent (D), and then incorporating component (B).

12. An antistatically modified inanimate organic material comprising from 0.01 to 2000 ppm by weight of the additive formulation according to claim 1 , wherein the inanimate organic material is selected from the group consisting of cosmetic preparations, medicament formulations, photographic recording materials, paints and varnishes, plastics, waxes, solvents, mineral oil products and fuels.
