Abstract
The present invention relates to oxygen scavenging compositions comprising an oxidation catalyst and at least one polyether selected from the group consisting of unsubstituted poly(alkylene glycol)s having alkylene chains of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, substituted or unsubstituted poly(alkylene glycol)s having alkylene chains of at least 4 carbon atoms, copolymers of poly(alkylene glycol)s, blends containing poly(alkylene glycol)s and mixtures thereof. The invention further relates to polymers containing said oxygen scavenging compounds and articles made therefrom.
