Summary
Thermal behavior studies were carried out on copolymer fractions of 1,3-butadiene-acrylic acid (Bu/AA) obtained from bulk polymerization. Three procedures uere used: a) Decomposition temperature, b) A combined method: thermal and electron impact degradation, c) Differential scanning calorimetry (D.S.C.). Thus, limiting stability temperatures and the different products could be determined. A behavior of Bu/AA after addition of different chemicals with suppressor effects on the thermal decomposition has also been studied. The resulting products, analyzed after thermal decomposition, showed that the retardation occurred in different ways depending on the inhibitor used.
