Stabilisation of Polymers

Stabilisers against the effects of light on polymers are essentially light-stable antioxidants. Many of the peroxidolytic and chain-breaking anti-

A strategy that is based on the use of reactive antioxidants can also be explored to achieve stabilisation of polymers suitable for human-contact applications. Reactive antioxidants which become an integral part of the macro-molecular chain can result in non-migratory stabiliser systems that would be unaffected by extractive hostile contact media. 

Recent years have seen the implementation of many various elementorganic compounds in economy. Their applications have proved to be extraordinarily wide for stereospecific polymerisation of olefines, for stabilisation of polymer and lubricant materials, as antiknock additives and additives for engine fuels, as antiseptics, pesticides and so on.

The macromers used in the stabilisation of polymer dispersions are in fact polyether polyols with terminal double bonds, able to copolymerise with vinylic monomers (ACN, styrene) and to form graft species during the radical copolymerisation. The resulting graft polyether polyol, formed in situ by the copolymerisation process, is in fact a NAD ...

The main progress in the science of ageing and stabilisation of polymers has generally been related to large tonnage carbochain polymers polyolefins, polyfvinyl chloride), rubbers, acrylic polymers. This is a consequence of not only their interest to industry, but also of the existence of fundamental investigations of cracking and oxidation of individual aliphatic compounds.
