ABSTRACT
This article is dedicated to the processes of stabilization aimed at slowing down the ageing of polymers. Two methods of stabilization are presented; that against anaerobic aging (UV, hydrolysis) and the other against oxidation. The main chemical mechanisms involved are recalled, and the main parameters describing the physical behavior of molecules. Together it allows for establishing a model adapted to predicting the life-span of an industrial polymer.
Read this article from a comprehensive knowledge base, updated and supplemented with articles reviewed by scientific committees.
