Abstract
It is shown that polyethylene and crossllnked polyethylene resins used for cable applications contain an antioxidant synergist in addition to an antioxidant. Their nature and content have been determined by a combination of ultraviolet and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and neutron activation analysis measurements. The results thus obtained suggest that part of the antioxidant compound is grafted to polymer chains during crosslinking
