Abstract
The effects of gamma irradiation in an argon atmosphere on copolymers of phenyl methacrylate and methylmethacrylate were,investigated using various thermoanalytical techniques. It is shown that the thermal stab ility of the copolymers containing higher concentration of methyl meth acrylate decreases after being exposed to gamma radiation.
