14. The thermal-oxidation study reported in ref 13 refers to a very low molar mass, carboxyl-terminated Ny6 sample. In the present photo-oxidation study, a high molar mass Ny6 has been used. The two samples are not directly comparable; therefore, a specific study of thermo-oxidation on the same sample used here is in progress.

19. Thermal oxidation of nylon 6 did not show Norrish products. The experiment performed in the absence of oxygen (pure thermal degradation) confirms this observation.
