Polypropylene containing a grafted amine as oxidation protector was subjected to gamma-irradiation for the evaluation of thermal stability. Several formulations were prepared containing hindered amine, Sanduvor PR 31 (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3% w/w) and CaCO3 (0.6% w/w). The stability assessment was carried out in air by oxygen uptake procedure under isothermal and isobaric conditions (165 degrees C and normal pressure, respectively). The exposure doses were placed in the range from 0 to 70 kGy. The changes appeared in the main kinetic parameters (oxidation induction time and oxidation rate) evaluated for thermal degradation of irradiated PP specimens are presented and the stability analysis is explained starting from the behaviour differences of various formulations of radiation processed polypropylene. On the low dose range, the drop in thermal stability of modified polypropylene films occurs more abrupt than it was observed for the samples irradiated at higher doses.
