- Abstract
To prevent or reduce the drawback effect and prolong the life of PVC and preserve its composition and efficiency, compounds are incorporated with PVC. In this work, three highly aromatic anti-cancer Schiff base compounds in symbol (C2, C3 and C5) were applied to photostabilize of PVC against photodegradation, by added it to the polymer in the form of Schiff bases, to increase the stability of polymer when irradiated with ultraviolet (UV) light, (λmax = 365 nm) at 30 ºC, with the intensity of the light wavelength at 1920 lux for a long duration. The PVC was blended with Schiff's base in concentration (0.5 %wt.), with thickness films (40 μm) were made from the blended materials. Several methods were used, including infrared spectroscopy, surface examination of irradiated films to know the effect of additives on PVC photostabilization and conductivity of films were measured by LCR meter. The results showed that the additives significantly reduced the photodegradation of PVC. C2 compound as additive, stabilize PVC more than other additives, it can absorb harmful radiation, deactivate hydrogen chloride, and scavenge high-energy species such as peroxides. Several mechanisms of photostabilization for C2 compound have been suggested. Therefore it is acting as stabilizers for PVC.
