Abstract
Graphene, the newest member of the carbon’s family, has proven its efficiency in improving polymers’ resistance against photodegradation, even at low loadings equal to 1 wt% or lower. This protective role involves a multitude of complementary mechanisms associated with graphene’s unique geometry and chemistry. In this review, these mechanisms, taking place during both the initiation and propagation steps of photodegradation, are discussed concerning graphene and graphene derivatives, i.e., graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). In particular, graphene displays important UV absorption, free radical scavenging, and quenching capabilities thanks to the abundant π-bonds and sp2 carbon sites in its hexagonal lattice structure. The free radical scavenging effect is also partially linked with functional hydroxyl groups on the surface. However, the sp2 sites remain the predominant player, which makes graphene’s antioxidant effect potentially stronger than rGO and GO. Besides, UV screening and oxygen barriers are active protective mechanisms attributed to graphene’s high surface area and 2D geometry. Moreover, the way that graphene, as a nucleating agent, can improve the photostability of polymers, have been explored as well. These include the potential effect of graphene on increasing polymer’s glass transition temperature and crystallinity.

Abstract
Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation may cause the significant degradation of many materials. UV radiation causes photooxidative degradation which results in breaking of the polymer chains, produces free radical and reduces the molecular weight, causing deterioration of mechanical properties and leading to useless materials, after an unpredictable time. Polystyrene (PS), one of the most important material in the modern plastic industry, has been used all over the world, due to its excellent physical properties and low-cost. When polystyrene is subjected to UV irradiation in the presence of air, it undergoes a rapid yellowing and a gradual embrittlement. The mechanism of PS photolysis in the solid state (film) depends on the mobility of free radicals in the polymer matrix and their bimolecular recombination. Free hydrogen radicals diffuse very easily through the polymer matrix and combine in pairs or abstract hydrogen atoms from polymer molecule. Phenyl radical has limited mobility. They may abstract hydrogen from the near surrounding or combine with a polymer radical or with hydrogen radicals. Almost all synthetic polymers require stabilization against adverse environmental effects. It is necessary to find a means to reduce or prevent damage induced by environmental components such as heat, light or oxygen. The photostabilization of polymers may be achieved in many ways. The following stabilizing systems have been developed, which depend on the action of stabilizer: (1) light screeners, (2) UV absorbers, (3) excited-state quenchers, (4) peroxide decomposers, and (5) free radical scavengers; of these, it is generally believed that excited-state quenchers, peroxide decomposers, and free radical scavengers are the most effective. Research into degradation and ageing of polymers is extremely intensive and new materials are being synthesized with a pre-programmed lifetime. New stabilizers are becoming commercially available although their modes of action are sometimes not thoroughly elucidated. They target the many possible ways of polymer degradation: thermolysis, thermooxidation, photolysis, photooxidation, radiolysis etc. With the goal to increase lifetime of a particular polymeric material, two aspects of degradation are of particular importance: Storage conditions, and Addition of appropriate stabilizers. A profound knowledge of degradation mechanisms is needed to achieve the goal.

Abstract
The adducts of simple chromophore 4-N,N-dimethylamino benzoic acid with 2,2,6,6-tetrametyl-4-hydroxy- or 4-amino-piperidine were examined as fluorescence probes (spin double sensors) to monitor radical processes. The links in the adducts were either an ester or amide group, and the sterically hindered amines were in the form of -NH, -NO• and -NOR. The spectral properties of the three related derivatives (esters or amides) were quite similar. The maxima of the absorption spectra were in the range of 295-315 nm, and the maximum of fluorescence was located in the range of 330-360 nm, depending on the polarity of the solvent. In polar solvents, a red-shifted fluorescence band at 460-475 nm was observed. The fluorescence of these derivatives was rather weak as compared to anthracene under the same conditions. The Stokes shift was large, as high as 6,000 cm(-1), indicating the formation of a twisted intra-molecular charge transfer (TICT) state. No large differences in Stokes shifts were observed in polymer matrices of poly(methyl methacrylate), polystyrene and poly(vinyl chloride). The extent of intramolecular quenching was expressed as Φ(NX)/Φ(NO) (X = H, NOR) and was in the range of 1-3 in solution and as high as 8 in polymer matrices. The low efficiency of intramolecular quenching limits the application of these new adducts as fluorescence probes for the monitoring of radical processes in solution but favors their application in polymer matrices.

Abstract
Hindered amine light stabilisers (HALS) are the most effective antioxidants currently available for polymer systems in post-production, in-service applications, yet the mechanism of their action is still not fully understood. Structural characterisation of HALS in polymer matrices, particularly the identification of structural modifications brought about by oxidative conditions, is critical to aid mechanistic understanding of the prophylactic effects of these molecules. In this work, electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) was applied to the analysis of a suite of commercially available 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-based HALS. Fragmentation mechanisms for the [M + H](+) ions are proposed, which provide a rationale for the product ions observed in the MS/MS and MS(3) mass spectra of N-H, N-CH(3), N-C(O)CH(3) and N-OR containing HALS (where R is an alkyl substituent). A common product ion at m/z 123 was identified for the group of antioxidants containing N-H, N-CH(3) or N-C(O)CH(3) functionality, and this product ion was employed in precursor ion scans on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer to identify the HALS species present in a crude extract from of a polyester-based coil coating. Using MS/MS, two degradation products were unambiguously identified. This technique provides a simple and selective approach to monitoring HALS structures within complex matrices.

Abstract
RESUMO: Polipropileno é um material que apresenta baixa adesividade devido à sua baixa energia livre superficial e à existência de camadas superficiais pouco coesas ao restante da fase. Neste trabalho estudamos a influência de processos foto-oxidativos sobre a superfície polimérica. Em geral poliolefinas não absorvem na região UV, mas impurezas ou defeitos remanescentes da síntese ou de seu processamento termo-mecânico posterior, tais como hidroperóxidos e carbonilas, iniciam intensa foto-oxidação. Placas de polipropileno foram irradiadas e suas propriedades adesivas medidas após colagem com couro utilizando adesivos comerciais. Os resultados indicam um aumento na aderência do polímero devido à ocorrência de funcionalização superficial.
