The Effect of Antioxidants and Polymer Stabilizers

Notes tind denotes time of induction period. 

This sometimes does not appear very satisfactory [61-63] several alternative explanations of the annealing effect have been considered  

ISOTHERMAL KINETICS OF POLYMERS OXIDATION AND ITS RELATION TO THE CONCENTRATION OF OXYGEN IN SURROUNDING ATMOSPHERE 

Analysis of the Bolland-Gee scheme involving the self-termination of peroxyl radicals and peroxyl radicals with alkyl radicals using Equations (4-8) leads to the relation 

Provided that we neglect the third term in the denominator, which is significant only at relatively low concentrations of oxygen in polymer we obtain
