Photo‐oxidative degradation of polyethylene triggers significant deterioration in the polymer
properties. Much interest is aimed at characterizing and possibly predicting photo‐oxidative …

Accelerated weathering exposures were performed on poly (ethylene-terephthalate)(PET)
films. Longitudinal multi-level predictive models as a function of PET grades and exposure …

Understanding and quantifying the effect of degradation on the chemical and physical
properties of LDPE films is crucial for maintaining high quality of recycled LDPE products …

In order to optimize and extend the life of photovoltaics (PV) modules, scienti c and
mechanistic statistical analytics must be performed on a large sample of materials …

We propose a procedure for extracting reliable information regarding service life of a
polymer product from an experimental scatter plot obtained by mechanical tests …

The kinetic study on thermal degradation of stabilised low density polyethylene by
chemiluminescence investigations was performed. Four hindered amine light stabilisers …

The thermal stability of gamma irradiated low density polyethylene (LDPE) films in presence
of various structures of hindered amine stabilizers (HAS) was investigated by the oxygen …

The effects of unmodified vermiculite (UMVC) clay on the photooxidation of polyamide 11
(PA11) were investigated by accelerated UV test up to 600 h. The clay was incorporated to …

Polymer testing including natural, accelerated testing or creep and fatigue testing, etc. is
very important to evaluate the changes in properties, structure, morphology and durability of …

The polystyrene (PS) materials tend to yellow over time. The yellowing phenomenon is an
indicator of the material's reduced performance and structural integrity. In the natural …
