Technical data

Constituents of polymers (1): The thermal decomposition/oxidtion of polymers

Article no: P7180000

Principle
Polymers decompose on heating. The oxidation products are essentially carbon dioxide and water. PE or PP should be used as plastic material, as here the pollution caused by the decomposition products is relatively small.

Learning objectives

Polymers decompose on heating in water and carbon dioxid

Benefits

Easy teaching and efficient learning by using interactive experimentation PHYWE-Software
Experiment is part of a complete solution set with experiments for the topic Chemistry of Polymers matched with international curriculum: all topics are covered
