The kinetics of photodegradation has also been studied. Surface damage caused by polychromatic (&gt;= 290 nm) at 55 degrees C in air is presented in different micrographs. The rate of photodegradation is very fast in terpolymers containing polar monomers as compared with copolymers and polyethylene. Morphological study of these photodegraded samples showed a very good relation with photodegradation results.</p>10afunctional polyolefins10aPhotodegradation10aUV irradiation1 aFernandes, Susete, N.1 aCorreia, Sandra1 aPrasad, A., V.1 aReddy, K., R.1 aRana, S.1 aLonkar, Sunil, P.1 aMarques, Maria, M.1 aSingh, R., P.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/photodegradation-ethylenepropylenepolar-monomers-co-and-terpolymers-i-prepared-group-4-001679nas a2200217   4500008004100000022001400041245011400055210006900169260010000238300001200338490000600350520084700356653000901203653003001212653002001242653002301262100001401285700001301299700001801312856013101330       2007                        eng d  a1788-618X00aPhoto-oxidation of EPDM/layered double hydroxides composites: influence of layered hydroxides and stabilizers0 aPhotooxidation of EPDMlayered double hydroxides composites influ  aDEPT POLYMER ENG, MUEGYETEM RKP 3, BUDAPEST, H-1111, HUNGARYbBUDAPEST UNIV TECHNOL & ECONcNOV  a748-7540 v13 a<p>The photo-oxidation of ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM)/layered double hydroxide (LDH) composites as well as EPDM/LDH with stabilizers is studied under accelerated UV irradiation (lambda &gt;= 290 nm) at 60 degrees C for different time intervals. The development of functional groups during oxidation was monitored by FT-IR spectroscopy. The photo-degradation of the pristine polymer and composites take place and the increase in hydroxyl and carbonyl groups with irradiation times, was estimated. EPDM filled LDH showed higher degradation rate than pristine EPDM, while in acidic medium EPDM/LDH showed almost equal degradation as in isolated conditions. These results show the advantages of LDHs as a filler as well as an acid killer. The effect of stabilizers is very less because of their concentration in comparison of LDH.</p>10aEPDM10alayered double hydroxides10aPhoto-oxidation10apolymer composites1 aKumar, B.1 aRana, S.1 aSingh, R., P.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/photo-oxidation-epdmlayered-double-hydroxides-composites-influence-layered-hydroxides-and-0
