摘要
The combination of tin carboxylate heat stabilizer and a dimethylaminopropyl methacrylamide-titanate adduct enables anaerobic landfill decomposition of plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). Through a mechanism as yet not understood, the above combination directs decomposition under anaerobic conditions to chain scission, thus lowering molecular weight to the point of vulnerability to microorganisms.
