Styrenic polymers photochemical degradation

After the examination of the PS photooxidation mechanism, a comparison of the photochemical behavior of PS with that of some of its copolymers and blends is reported in this chapter. The copolymers studied include styrene-stat-acrylo-nitrile (SAN) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS). The blends studied are AES (acrylonitrile-EPDM-styrene) (EPDM = ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer) and a blend of poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) and PS (PVME-PS). The components of the copolymers are chemically bonded. In the case of the blends, PS and one or more polymers are mixed. The copolymers or the blends can be homogeneous (miscible components) or phase separated. The potential interactions occurring during the photodegradation of the various components may be different if they are chemically bonded or not, homogeneously dispersed or spatially separated. Another important aspect is the nature, the proportions and the behavior towards the photooxidation of the components added to PS. How will a component which is less or more photodegradable than PS influence the degradation of the copolymer or the blend We show in this chapter how the... [Pg.703]
