Abstract
In this paper methods are given for the quantitative determination of three antioxidants, viz., N,N′-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine, N,N′-di-2-naphthyl-p-phenylenediamine and N-phenyl-N′-cyclohexyl-p-phenylenediamine. According to these methods the antioxidants are extracted from the rubber compound, separated by partition chromatography on completely acetylated filter paper and oxidized to the corresponding p-quinonediimines, after which these oxidation products are determined colorimetrically.
