In this study we examined the influence of laurolactam on the thermo-oxidative degradation of a copolymer of poly(butylene terephthalate) and polybutylene glycol and of di(ethyleneglycol) dibenzoate, used as model compound. The degradation was followed by measurement of the oxygen uptake, FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy and measurement of the intrinsic viscosity changes during degradation. A stabilizing effect of l...
A comparative study, conducted into the thermooxidative degradation of polystyrene (PS) and PS modified by insertion of CH2(C=O)CH2CH2 units (MPS), showed that the degradability of PS was enhanced.
