Abstract
Blends containing poly(vinyl chloride) and 9-(2,3-epoxypropane)carbazo le in different weight ratios were subjected to investigations using t hermogravimetric analysis coupled with Fourier transform infrared spec troscopy. The effect of additive on the polymer degradation process wa s studied. It was found that 9-(2,3-epoxypropane)carbazole causes an i ncrease in the onset temperature of hydrogen chloride emission by abou t 20-25 degrees C. Finally, the mechanisms of stabilization were propo sed. (C) 1995 John Wiley and Sons, Inc.
