Abstract
Thermal degradation of poly(2,2',-propane-bis-4-phenyl carbonate) or b
isphenol A polycarbonate (PC) alone and in presence of metal oxide as
additives have been discussed. Thermal degradation of PC in presence o
f metal oxide additives may be surface induced catalytic thermo-oxidat
ive degradation. Some metal oxides retard thermo-oxidative degradation
of PC.
