The present invention relates to a resin composition containing a polyvinyl chloride resin and an acrylic resin and a board for interior materials manufactured using the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a resin composition having excellent heat resistance due to a high glass transition temperature, having high flexibility even with a low plasticizer content, and having excellent processability due to such properties, as compared with the case wherein a polyvinyl chloride resin is used alone, and to a board for interior materials manufactured using the resin composition. According to the present invention, the resin composition may be applied to both a calendering method and an extrusion method due to excellent processability thereof.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising one or more (co)polymers and one or more phosphonite compounds that contain cardanol moieties. Moreover, the present invention also refers to the use of the phosphonite compounds as process stabilizers, in particular refers to the use of such compounds for stabilizing and/or reducing the Yellowness Index of a (co)polymer composition exposed to heat and/or mechanical stress.
