Abstract
Block copolymers of polystyrene and poly(dimethylsiloxane) or of polybutadiene and poly(dimethylsiloxane) with nonhydrolyzably bound 2-hydroxybenzophenone and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol residues were prepared by terminating the “living” block copolymers with glacial acetic acid to form siloxanol end groups, followed by condensation with diethoxysilyl derivatives of the stabilizers in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate. The polymeric UV absorbers were proved to be nonextractable from polystyrene. At Xenotest aging (40°C) the polymeric UV absorbers were less effective than 2-hydroxy-4-octyloxybenzophenone. The polymeric antioxidants were superior to antioxidants of low molecular weight both in thermooxidative aging of vulcanized polybutadiene films at 70°C and in oxygen-uptake studies with stabilized polypropylene at 180°C over long periods.
