Computer simulation has been used to analyse the condensed-phase thermal degradation of a series of compounds with functional groups related to defects found in poly(vinyl chloride) ( pvc ). We have been able to estimate the relative significance of catalysed and non- catalysed processes and make some estimates of the significance of allylic rearrangement.
