The development of polymers as an important class of material was inhibited at the first by the premature failure of these versatile compounds in many applicati

During the past decade, the field of polymer degradation and stabilization has become a subject of central importance in polymer science and technology. This bo

The study of polymer degradation and stabilisation is of considerable practical importance as the industrial uses of polymeric materials continue to expand. In

The purpose of this publication is two-fold. In the first place it is intended to review progress in the development of practical stabilising systems for a wide
