Abstract

The inhibitory effect of metal-free porphyrins on the thermal–oxidative breakdown of several biocompatible polymers is observed for the first time. Differential thermal analysis shows that the thermal stability of poly(ethylene oxide) and triblock copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide increases by 80–100 K, compared to the initial breakdown temperatures of these polymers in the presence of metal-free porphyrins (up to 3 wt %).
