Journal ArticleDOI
IR and X-ray characterization of the ferromagnetic phase of pyrolysed polyacrylonitrile
TL;DR: In this paper, the polymer was prepared by γ-ray induced polymerization in air and pyrolysis under argon at various temperatures in the range 600-900°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemiluminescence study on the oxidation of several polyolefins—I. Thermal-induced degradation of additive-free polyolefins
TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied chemical luminescence (CL) to evaluate the oxidation susceptibility of various polyolefins: low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylenes (LLDPE) and isotactic polypropylene (i-PP).
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of metals on thermal degradation of polyethylenes
TL;DR: In this paper, a chemiluminescence study on thermal degradation of some polyethylenes (LDPE, LLDPE and HDPE) on seven metal trays in the presence of triazines as stabilisers was carried out.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation processing of polyolefin blends. I. Crosslinking of EPDM–PP blends
TL;DR: In this article, a linear dependence of the gel fraction on polypropylene (PP) concentration was found, and the optimal dose range for the efficient crosslinking of all EPDM/PP blends was 40 -180 kGy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Method for lifetime estimation of power transformer mineral oil
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a simpler method based on a single ageing test at a higher temperature and the activation energy of the oxidation reaction being determined from non-isothermal Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) measurements.
