Student thesis: Doctoral ThesisDoctor of Philosophy

Abstract

The effects of different compounds on the melt stabilisation and the subsequent photostabilisation of Polypropylene have been studied under various processing conditions. Better melt and photo-stabilisation were obtained in the polymer films processed with the additives under restricted oxygen conditions than in the presence of oxygen excess...
