Abstract:

A series of novel ternary composite antioxidant systems with different types and mass ratios were designed.
These antioxidant systems were based on the BASF antioxidant Irganox®1010 as a main antioxidant and Irgafos®168 as an
auxiliary antioxidant at a basis mass ratio of 1∶1 together with Revonox®420 as a carbon radical capture agent. Such antioxi⁃
dant systems were applied for the modification of coal⁃based homopolypropylene(homo⁃PP)to enhance its thermo⁃oxida⁃
tive aging performance. The resultant modified homo⁃PP was evaluated with oxidation induction time(OIT),yellow index,melting flow rate and mechanical performance. The results indicated that the modified homo ⁃PP achieved optimum anti⁃oxidative performance by means of an antioxidant composite system based on Irganox®1010,Irgafos®168,and Revonox®420. This composite antioxidant system resulted in the longest oxidation induction time of 9. 8 min,a yellow index of 1. 3,and a melting flow rate of 10. 7 g/10 min for the modified homo⁃PP. Moreover,the modified homo⁃PP gained an optimum anti⁃yellowing effect at a mass ratio of Irganox®1010 and Irgafos®168 of 1∶2. These results provide a good reference for the design and development of high⁃efficient and long⁃term antioxidant system for the coal⁃based homo⁃PP.
