Depolarization‐current study of low‐density polyethylene containing an antioxidant

摘要

Thermally stimulated depolarization currents in low‐density polyethylene containing Irganox 1076 are investigated. The thermal sampling technique has been used to study the elementary processes constituting bgr; and ggr; relaxations. Irganox 1076 is found to increase the intensity of bgr; and ggr; peaks and not to change the activation parameters. The participation of the antioxidant in the molecular relaxation processes is discussed.
