Thermal oxidation and photo‐oxidation of poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide)

Abstract: The thermal oxidation and photo‐oxidation of poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) have been examined. Oxidation of the plastic results in the evolution of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and traces of hydrogen, the introduction of considerable crosslinking, and increased absorption in the hydroxyl and carbonyl regions of the infrared spectrum. A free‐radical oxidation mechanism is postulated.

“…carbonyl group), no such increase was observed for the other vacuum-annealed samples when compared with an unannealed standard. In agreement with these infrared spectroscopy results, Kelleher et al [22] found similar absorption bands for PXE heated to 125 ~ in air, while Madorsky [23] and Madorsky and Straus [24] observed that PXE annealed under vacuum was stable at 320 ~ Thus it appears that the decrease in bromine yield near the surface of PXE (see Fig. 5) can be attributed to the deactivation of the phenylene ring due to an oxidation reaction.…”

“…The composition and molecular characteristics of all synthesized material were performed by FTIR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, MALDI-TOF, SEC, viscosimetric and calorimetric analyses. The spectroscopic and MALDI-TOF characterizations confirm the multi-block structure; 12 viscosimetric, calorimetric and SEC data are reported in Table I.…”
