Perera (3) has claimed that physical aging phenomena have an impact on the formulation, application, and the service life behavior of organic coatings in many domains.
In this way aging phenomena were accelerated and the acceleration factor equals the squared ratio of the original thickness to the actual thickness.
This could indicate that the change in physical properties is related strictly to thermal-oxidative aging phenomena and not polymer chain scission, which of course in the end could lead to the same condition.
