Secondary Processes of Thermal Degradation of PVC

Abstract A brief summary of secondary processes in PVC thermal degradation is given. This includes some details of crosslinking and gel formation, cyclization, chain scission and benzene formation, Diels-Alder reaction with additives, as well as oxidation of polyenes.
