Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) is an excellent antioxidant widely used in food, polymer materials, and other fields. In order to understand the hazards of BHT, it is necessary to study its thermal stability, oxidation properties, and reaction products. This paper investigated BHT's oxidation characteristics and products using a mini- ... MCPVT results showed that no chemical reaction of BHT was observed under a nitrogen atmosphere even when ...
