Annotation -
The content of this subject is focused on the basic processes of degradation of polymer materials and the principles of their protection, protective additives included. Additives can be conveniently clasified according to their function into various classes and subdivided according to their more specific function.The subject follows up with the other subjects of polymer technology program and increases the knowledge in special and perspective fields of polymer chemistry.
