Polyethylene loss of ductility during oxidation: Effect of initial molar mass T distribution ∗ Armando F. Reano, Alain Guinault, Emmanuel Richaud , Bruno Fayolle Laboratoire PIMM, Ensam, CNRS, Cnam, 151 Boulevard de l'Hôpital, 75013 Paris, France ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: This paper reports a study of thermal oxidation induced embrittlement in several polyethylene grades differing Polyethylene mainly by the broadness of the molar mass distribution (ranging for lower than 3 to more than 30). Thermal Oxidation oxidation was monitored at macromolecular scale (Gel Permeation Chromatography, Differential Scanning Loss of ductility Calorimetry) and macroscopic scale (tensile tests).
