Abstract:Organic alkyl and aryl phosphites are effective antioxidants and photostabilizers with applications in a wide range of polymers. The primary role of phosphites is to decompose hydroperoxide. However, aryl phosphites are also capable of reacting as antioxidants by affecting the kinetics. In particular, oligomer‐type phosphites have a greater effect on polymer degradation because of their high compatibility, reactivity, and solubility with almost all polymers. Generally, phosphites are sensitive to hydrolysis. I… Show more
