The thermal decomposition of two polystyrene samples prepared by radical polymerisation in the presence of oxygen was studied in the temperature range 280-300°C where volatile formation is negligible. The energy of activation for chain scission of the oxygen-containing polymers was lower than that o
The thermal degradation in oxygen of a number of fluorine-containing polymers haa been studied by using a weight loss technique. The relative thermal stabilities of the different polymers have been determined and, where possible, the overall activation energy and frequency factors for their breakdow
The degradation characteristics of thermally synthesized polystyrenes, decomposing at sub-volatilization temperatures in the presence of an inhibitor (1,4-diaminoanthraquinone), support the theory that the weak spots in these polymers are distributed at random within the polymer backbone, rather tha
