Abstract
Freeze‐dried polystyrene ``fluffs'' were found to react with gaseous oxygen or nitrogen atoms to yield free‐radical products which were observed by ESR spectroscopy. Both oxygen and nitrogen atoms apparently add into the polymer at a rate significantly slower than that which has been observed for hydrogen‐atom addition.Keywords
