Xylyldibutylbenzofuranone is a stabilizer that is added to plastics to prevent the polymer from splitting into its constituent monomers. It has been shown to be an effective antioxidant, inhibiting the oxidation of polyvinyl chloride and polyethylene terephthalate plastics. Xylyldibutylbenzofuranone can be used in combination with phosphites, which form stable compounds with the stabilizer. These compounds are not allergenic or damaging to health, but may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. The analytical method for determining the content of xylyldibutylbenzofuranone in a plastic material is based on its carboxylate group and functional groups. Xylyldibutylbenzofuranone does not damage the environment and has been shown to have antioxidant effects against ozone-induced oxidation of polystyrene.
