A stabilizer against hydrolysis, which can solve conventional problems of
a carbodiimide compound compounded in an ester-group-containing resin or
a biodegradable plastic as a stabilizer against hydrolysis, such as poor
heat resistance and a coloring problem due to yellowing, and can provide
enhanced resistance against hydrolysis, and a thermoplastic resin
composition of an ester-group-containing resin or a biodegradable plastic
containing the same. Specifically, that the stabilizer against hydrolysis
includes a carbodiimide composition comprising an aliphatic carbodiimide
compound (A) and a phosphorus antioxidant (B), preferably the stabilizer
contains a carbodiimide composition wherein a phosphorus antioxidant
(B.sup.1) is dispersed and present in the carbodiimide composition by
admixing the phosphorus antioxidant (B.sup.1) during synthesis of the
aliphatic carbodiimide compound (A), and a thermoplastic resin
composition having a superior stability against hydrolysis, characterized
in that said stabilizer against hydrolysis is compounded in an easily
hydrolysable resin (C).
