Notes:
ABS masterbatch concentrates in antioxidants and UV stabilizers were added as conventional additives for normal ABS. The thermal and photo-oxidative performance of these polymers were compared with that of the commercial ABS and additives by measurement of carbonyl index and embrittlement times. From the result obtained, it is concluded that the addition of these additives in the form of masterbatches appears to be a better practical way of incorporating antioxidants and UV stabilizers into ABS simply by dilution of ABS, as these give thermal and light-stabilizing effects that cannot be achieved by stabilizers added in a conventional way. The bound stabilizers are resistant to leaching and chemical extraction.
