How Small Molecules Affect the Thermo-Oxidative Aging Mechanism of Polypropylene: A Reactive Molecular Dynamics Study

Understanding the aging mechanism of polypropylene (PP) is fundamental for the fabrication and application of PP-based materials. In this paper, we present our study in which we first used reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) simulations to explore the thermo-oxidative aging of PP in the presence of ac...
