Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal degradation of polyethylene in a nitrogen atmosphere of low oxygen content. II. Structural changes occuring in low-density polyethylene at an oxygen content less than 0.0005%
Arne Holmström,Erling M. Sörvik +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a thermal degradation of low-density polyethylene, free from additives, were heated at temperatures between 284° and 355°C under high-purity nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation of anomalous structures in PVC and their influence on the thermal stability: 2. Branch structures and tertiary chlorine
TL;DR: In this article, branch structures were determined in fractions of a commercial suspension of PVC and experimental PVC samples obtained at subsaturation conditions (U-PVC) with 13 C n.m. spectroscopy at 50.31 MHz after reductive dehalogenation with tributyltinhydride.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermooxidative degradation of polyethylene. I and II. Structural changes occurring in low‐density polyethylene, high‐density polyethylene, and tetratetracontane heated in air
Arne Holmström,Erling M. Sörvik +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the structural changes have been studied with gel chromatography, viscometry, infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and gravimetric measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal degradation of EVA and EBA—A comparison. I. Volatile decomposition products
TL;DR: In this paper, structural changes during thermal degradation of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) and EBA copolymers are compared and a linear decomposition rate was found already at the lowest investigated pyrolysis temperature, 150°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride). III. Structural changes during degradation in nitrogen
Kent B. Abbås,Erling M. Sörvik +1 more
TL;DR: The structural changes in polyvinyl chloride during thermal degradation in nitrogen at 190°C have been investigated in this paper, where no chain scission was observed, but only cross-linking reactions were observed.
