The invention provides
hydrotalcite for improving
thermal stability and initial whiteness of PVC (
polyvinyl chloride) and a preparation method of the
hydrotalcite. The
chemical composition of the
hydrotalcite comprises M < 2 + > xM < 3 + > y (OH) 2x + 3y-x / 2 (CO3) x / 4. MH2O, wherein M < 2 + > is a
divalent metal ion or a mixture of
divalent metal ions and is selected from one or two of Mg < 2 + >, Ca < 2 + >, Ni < 2 + >, Zn < 2 + >, Mn < 2 + >, Cu < 2 + >, Co < 2 + >, Pd < 2 + > and Fe < 2 + >; m < 3 + > is a trivalent
metal ion and is selected from one of Al < 3 + >, Ga < 3 + > and In < 3 + >; x and y are positive numbers, and the
molar ratio of x to y satisfies x / y = 2.0-3.0; m is the content of
crystal water, and m is 3.5-4.0. By regulating and controlling the specific surface area to be less than 20 m < 2 > / g, D50 to be less than 0.150 mu m and the grain size to be greater than or equal to 800 and combining a
surface modification process, the compatibility and
dispersity of the hydrotalcite and PVC are improved. The preparation method comprises the steps of
raw material mixing and sanding, hydro-thermal synthesis,
solid-liquid separation and washing,
surface modification,
drying and post-treatment, the hydrotalcite capable of improving PVC
thermal stability and initial whiteness is obtained, the hydrotalcite can be uniformly dispersed in a
PVC matrix,
thermal decomposition is inhibited by absorbing HCl, the static aging time is prolonged, and meanwhile
light scattering is reduced.
