A study of the mixtures of polystyrene and polyvinyl fluoride with aluminum after plastic deformation under high pressure using DSC and thermogravimetry

Abstract

Mixtures of powdered polystyrene and polyvinyl fluoride with aluminum exposed to plastic deformation under pressure of 1 and 4 GPa, have been studied by DSC and thermogravimetry. It has been established that, in the deformed mixtures at temperatures up to 200°C, exothermal processes take place. Interaction between polymer decomposition products and aluminum has been studied, as have its oxidation and nitrogenation.
