Abstract

AbstractIn this work a study is made of the degradation on ozonation of unfractionated polystyrene (PS) in CCl4 solution. It was found that the ozone attack of PS molecules is accompanied by hydrogen abstraction from tertiary CH bonds and by the formation of ozonides due to the reaction of ozone with the aromatic rings. A scheme of PS degradation in solution is suggested; several kinetic parameters are evaluated.
