Volatility of Antioxidants and Antiozonants. 1. Pure Compounds in Absence of Rubber

Abstract
Comparable volatility data are presented for three phenolic and five aromatic amine compounds. Vapor pressure curves for the materials are given along with the vapor pressure equations derived from these curves. The equations are used to calculate temperatures at which the eight compounds would have equal vapor pressure. Vapor pressures of each material are calculated at specified temperatures. Data are given for several methods of determining actual losses of antioxidants at several different temperatures and at several different airflows. Surface effects are also studied. In general, all methods give the same relative rating of the eight materials, but quantitative data vary considerably with the method used.
