Mixed tocopherols, γ‐tocopherol, and δ‐tocopherol were evaluated for antioxidant performance in acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene by using oxidative induction time as the response. Three commonly used phenolic antioxidants and vitamin E (α‐tocopherol) were used as controls. Mixed tocopherols were found to have a greater antioxidant effect than the hindered phenolic antioxidants or vitamin E in acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene. γ‐tocopherol was found to be primarily responsible for the improved performance of mixed tocopherols.
