A liquid microemulsion stabilizer for chlorinated polymers composition for stabilizing halogen-containing polymer comprising: a) a microemulsion of an overbased metal carbonate/carboxylate obtained from the reaction of an oxide and/or hydroxide of a metal selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc and mixtures thereof, an aliphatic carboxylic acid in which the aliphatic moiety contains up to about 30 carbon atoms and carbon dioxide in the presence of a solvent for the aliphatic carboxylic acid, a promoter and a microemulsion-forming amount of surfactant; and, b) an organotin stabilizer. |
