Notes:
The formation of polymer-bonded stabilizer derivatives during photooxidation of isotactic polypropylene, which contains the hindered amine light stabilizer bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) sebacate and the corresponding bisnitroxyl radical, was investigated. The photooxidized polypropylene films that contain these additives were studied by ESR, IR, and nitrogen analysis before and after exhaustive solvent extraction of the photooxidized films. ESR showed that under the conditions in use a maximum of 20% of the nitroxyl radicals formed from the hindered amine was bonded to the polymer chain. Regeneration of nitroxyl radicals from the polymer-bonded stabilizer derivatives under photooxidative conditions indicated that the stabilizer was bonded to the polymer chain by O-alkyl-substituted hydroxylamine linkages 〉N—O—PP.
