These are metal carboxylates which are mixtures of salts of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids and sometimes of alkylphenols with Barium, Cadmium,, Zinc and Calcium in different proportions.

Metal carboxylate stabilizers must be chosen which are appropriate to the PVC type, the numerous formulation variations, including the use of plasticizers and fillers and the processing techniques such as calendaring, extrusion, injection molding, plastisol processing. Additionally, the demands made to the end product, for example high transparency, weathering stability, resistance to discoloration owing to sulphur compounds, plate out and fogging control, ease of printing and welding must be considered. This is the reason why so many different metal carboxylate stabilizers are in the market, and why they are all dissimilar.
