The thermal decomposition of oxidized polyethylene wax

Differential scanning calorimetric and thermogravimetric analyses of oxidized polyethylene wax were carried out in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres. Information was obtained about its thermal stability and pattern of degradation. It exhibited high thermal stability comparable with that of a low molec...

Description
Summary:Differential scanning calorimetric and thermogravimetric analyses of oxidized polyethylene wax were carried out in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres. Information was obtained about its thermal stability and pattern of degradation. It exhibited high thermal stability comparable with that of a low molecular weight polyethylene.
