An oxygen acceptive catalyser Fe/FeO mixture was added to the high density polyethylene (HDPE) at different amounts and the stabilisation effects of this additive on the structure of HDPE was investigated. It was shown that the mechanical behaviour and the temperature stability of HDPE was significantly improved with the application of the additive. The experimental results were found to be in accordance with analytical approaches.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
