Basic principles of thermal degradation and thermal stabilization of poly(vinyl chloride). Mathematical model of the action of PVC thermal stabilizers

A model of the action of chemically homogeneous thermal stabilizers of poly(vinyl chloride) is shown. Based on the described computer program and experimental data, the proposed model is confirmed and rate constants of the reaction of stabilizers with HCI and the effect of the products of this reaction on the kinetics of PVC degradation are calculated.
