Abstract
The surface photooxidation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and p oly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) has been studied by ESCA in the presence of Leucopur EGM as brightener. The results indicate that in the case of P VC there is no effect of the additive in the photooxidation, while in the case of additivated PET it is possible to observe surface protecti on for the higher concentrations of brightener used.
