Lecture
Polymer Degradation and Stability
Bernhard Schartel
Comments
Long or tailored lifetime, bio-degradability as well as fire behaviour are important properties of polymer materials. Thus controlling the degradation by effective stabilization or reducing fire risks by flame retardants are important tasks in the design and development of polymeric materials when polymers are subjected to fire, heat, oxygen, sunlight or humidity. Corresponding phenomena, mechanisms and structure-property-relationships must be understood if the technology and application of polymers are to continue to advance. Given an overview and starting the discussion within this framework is therefore a major function of this lecture.
