Polymers are widely used in different industries, from commercial to domestic, it has never ending applications. With time, the quality of polymer starts to degrade due to various factors. Environmental conditions, play a major role in deteriorating the basic properties of the polymers. While estimating the shelf life of the product, it is necessary to test the product in accelerated intended working conditions. To test the endurance and durability of the product, weathering conditions are simulated depending upon the intended real working conditions. This helps in assessing the behaviour of the product and estimate the life.
