Abstract
AbstractInfrared spectroscopy was used to study the thermal oxidation, accelerated and natural photooxidation of acetal homopolymer and copolymer. Chain scission is the predominant reaction, as revealed by changes observed in the hydroxyl, carbonyl, and methylene absorption regions of the infrared spectra. Photolysis accelerates the degradation of both plastics. Reaction mechanisms are presented to explain the behavior of these materials under oxidative conditions.
