Aging and Degradation of Polyolefins. II. Gamma-Initiated Oxidations of Atactic Polypropylene

Abstract

The study presents the rates and products of oxidation of amorphous polypropylene (PP) as initiated by the action of gamma rays, for comparison with the di-t-butylperoxy oxalate (DBPO)-initiated oxidations of PP and with the gamma-initiated oxidations of polyethylene and ethylene-propylene copolymers.
