Thermal and photochemical oxidation of polypropylene. Influence of residual catalyst levels in unstabilised diluent and gas phase polymers
TLDR
In this article, the thermal and photochemical behavior of several unstabilised polypropylene samples made experimentally by a gas phase (GP) process has been examined and compared with those of samples made commercially by the normal diluent phase (DP) process.About:

Photooxidation of Polypropylene/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites. 2. Interactions with Antioxidants
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of stabilizing additives on the photooxidation of polypropylene/montmorillonite (PP/MMt) nanocomposites exposed to UV light was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photocatalytic Coatings for Environmental Applications
TL;DR: Porosity of the coatings through calcium carbonate doping is shown to be crucial in the control of the effective destruction of atmospheric NOX gases and effective nanoparticle anatase titania nanoparticles in the development of self-cleaning paints and microbiological surfaces are demonstrated.

Thermal stability and flammability of silicone polymer composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of fillers on thermal stability and flammability of silicone polymer are investigated and it is shown that mica and ferric oxide have a stabilising effect on the thermal stability of silicone polymers.

The photo-oxidation of polymers. a comparison with low molecular weight compounds
TL;DR: The photo-oxidation of polymers involves different steps in which their reactivity is different from that of low molecular weight compounds, mainly due to the close vicinity of reactive groups in polymers and to the rigidity of the matrix as mentioned in this paper.
