Abstract
A multichannel, highly sensitive installation for the study of the kinetics of decomposition of halogen-containing polymers under automatic conditions has been described. Hydrogen halide produced by polymer decomposition is recorded using mercury-halide ion-selective electrodes, the results being processed by computer. Low-temperature (313–403 K) degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) has been studied. At the glass transition temperature (358 K) the Arrhenius parameters for the degradation of PVC change. A dependence between the segmental mobility of PVC macromolecules and the rate of polymer dehydrochlorination is demonstrated.
