Abstract
The impact of graphite nanoslabs on thermal oxidation of polyethylene is studied via the methods of dynamic thermogravimetry and isothermal oxidation. Graphite nanoslabs are shown to exert an inhibiting effect on thermal oxidation of polyethylene, which leads to an increase in the induction period and in the oxygen-absorption rate. That there is an abnormal effect of the nanofiller content on the resistance to thermal oxidative destruction of composites, mainly for diffusion reasons, is established as well.
