Abstract
Kinetic peculiarities of degradation of polycarbonates of various structure in dimethylformamide under the influence of the products of electrochemica l reduction of (C4H9)(4)NClO4 solution in dimethylformamide the background solution have been investigated. It has been shown that the process (which may be determined as an indirect electrochemical reductive degradation) pro ceeds via nucleophilic catalytic mechanism.
