| We and others have shown that, on a per unit mass basis, ultrafine particles are considerably more oxidatively active than are fine and coarse particle fractions (Cho et al. Under high shear and high oxidative mix conditions (HTM), peptizers begin to demonstrate their chemical effectiveness in promoting oxidatively induced radical degradation, while QDI containing compounds showed large viscosity reductions in the early stages of mixing. They are hydrolytically and oxidatively stable, and are compatible with a broad range of additives for PVC. |
