P3O5-10 pillared Mg/Al hydrotalcite (HTs) as a functional fire-retarding filler was successfully prepared by impregnation-reconstruction, where the HTs was used to prepare polypropylene (PP) and HTs composite (PP/HTs). Thermal decomposition was crucial for correctly identifying the thermal behavior for the PP/HTs, and studied using thermogravimetry (TG) at different heating rates. Based on single TG curves and Málek method, as well as 41 mechanism functions, the thermal decompositions of the PP/HTs composite and PP in nitrogen atmosphere were studied under non-isothermal conditions. The mechanism functions of the thermal decomposition reactions for the PP/HTs composite and PP were separately “chemical reaction F3” and “phase boundary reaction R2,” which were also in good agreement with corresponding experimental data. It was found that the addition of the HTs increased the apparent activation energy Ea of the PP/HTs comparing to the PP, which improved the thermal stability of the polypropylene. A difference in the set of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters was also observed between the PP/HTs and PP, particularly with respect to lower ΔS≠ value assigned to higher thermal stability of the PP/HTs composite.

Thermal Stability Of

Complex mineral ammonium nitrate-based fertilizers are complex multicomponent salt systems possessing low thermal stability and prone to self-sustaining decomposition. This leads to the need to increase the requirements for fire and explosion safety in their manufacture, storage and transportation, caused by the fact that ammonium nitrate is a solid oxidant able to support a combustion, and its heating in confined space can lead to detonation. Components that make up such fertilizers can both reduce (phosphates and ammonium sulfate) and accelerate (chlorine compounds) decomposition of ammonium nitrate. Thus, the thermal stability of fertilizers based on ammonium nitrate largely depends on the ratio of the components that make up its composition or formed as a result of the chemical reaction. The simplest way to reduce the content of ammonium nitrate and increase the thermal stability of fertilizer without changing the content of essential nutrients is to increase the degree of phosphoric acid ammoniation. In this paper, the phase composition change of grade 22:11:11 nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium fertilizer obtained with different ammoniation degree in the process of thermal decomposition was studied by X-ray phase analysis. To obtain this fertilizer, wet-process phosphoric acid obtained sulfuric acid attack of the Khibin apatite concentrate by a hemihydrate method is used. It is shown that an increase in the ammoniation degree has a significant effect on the exothermic decomposition of ammonium nitrate and the amount of material that is released into the gas phase. The phases formed at each stage of the decomposition are determined.Forcitation:Gorbovskiy K.G., Ryzhova A.S., Norov A.M., Pagaleshkin D.A., Kalinina V.N., Mikhaylichenko A.I.

The terpolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO2), propylene oxide (PO), and cyclohexene oxide (CHO) were performed by both random polymerization and block polymerization to synthesize the random poly (propylene cyclohexene carbonate) (PPCHC), di-block polymers of poly (propylene carbonate–cyclohexyl carbonate) (PPC-PCHC), and tri-block polymers of poly (cyclohexyl carbonate–propylene carbonate–cyclohexyl carbonate) (PCHC-PPC-PCHC). The kinetics of the thermal degradation of the terpolymers was investigated by the multiple heating rate method (Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) method), the single heating rate method (Coats-Redfern method), and the Isoconversional kinetic analysis method proposed by Vyazovkin with the data from thermogravimetric analysis under dynamic conditions. The values of ln k vs. T−1 for the thermal decomposition of four polymers demonstrate the thermal stability of PPC and PPC-PCHC are poorer than PPCHC and PCHC-PPC-PCHC. In addition, for PPCHC and PCHC-PPC-PCHC, there is an intersection between the two rate constant lines, which means that, for thermal stability of PPCHC, it is more stable than PCHC-PPC-PCHC at the temperature less than 309 °C and less stable when the decomposed temperature is more than 309 °C. Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) and thermogravimetric analysis/infrared spectrometry (TG/FTIR) techniques were applied to investigate the thermal degradation behavior of the polymers. The results showed that unzipping was the main degradation mechanism of all polymers so the final pyrolysates were cyclic propylene carbonate and cyclic cyclohexene carbonate. For the block copolymers, the main chain scission reaction first occurs at PC-PC linkages initiating an unzipping reaction of PPC chain and then, at CHC–CHC linkages, initiating an unzipping reaction of the PCHC chain. That is why the T−5% of di-block and tri-block polymers were not much higher than that of PPC while two maximum decomposition temperatures were observed for both the block copolymer and the second one were much higher than that of PPC. For PPCHC, the random arranged bulky cyclohexane groups in the polymer chain can effectively suppress the backbiting process and retard the unzipping reaction. Thus, it exhibited much higher T−5% than that of PPC and block copolymers.

In this article, the thermal stability of PU/PVDF blend was investigated by thermogravimetry (TG), and their rheological property was studied through testing and analyzing the rheological curves. The results showed that, with the increase in PVDF content, the thermal decomposition temperature of PU/PVDF blend increased, and by fitting relevant data to thermal decomposition dynamic equations, it was found that thermal decomposition activation energy of the blend increased gradually, i.e. the thermal stability of the blend increased gradually. Meantime, based on the curves of shear stress vs. shear rate of the blend at 180°C and 200°C, it was shown that for PU/PVDF blend, with the decrease of temperature and the increase in PVDF content, the non-Newtonian index decreased, while the viscosity of the blend increased.

Thermal stability of polyurethane varnish coating prepared by using diphenylolpropane, polyetherpolyol and polyisocyanate with an equimolar ratio of isocyanate and hydroxyl groups was assessed in the air. The polyurethane weight loss thermogram shows three temperature regions: I – (217-275)°С, II – (275-380)°С, and III – above 380°С. For interpreting thermogram of the polyurethane under study the model substances simulating the urethane groups of a polymer were synthesized. The substance containing the urethane group formed by phenolic hydroxyl of diphenylolpropane was shown to demonstrate relatively low thermal stability and gets broken down into isocyanate and bisphenol. Decomposition of the substance containing the urethane group formed by alcoholic hydroxyl occurs at the higher temperature. The data obtained allow interpreting the occurrence of thermal decomposition step I in TGA curve by structural changes in the blocks formed by diphenylolpropane and polyisocyanate being the least stable when exposed to elevated temperatures. The next step can be attributed to decomposition of more thermostable urethane groups formed by functional groups of oligooxypropylenetriol and polyisocyanate. Transition to the step III accompanied by severe sample weight loss due to decomposition of urethane groups is explained by thermal oxidation of oligoether units of polymer. Based on the data obtained the conclusion was made that the presence of urethane groups formed by phenolic hydroxyl of diphenylolpropane in polymer structure results in the decreased thermooxidative decomposition onset temperature of polymer. At the same time, a deceleration of thermooxidative processes due to the stabilizing effect of diphenylolpropane released at the beginning of thermal decomposition of polyurethane is observed in a high-temperature region. The proposed polyurethane coating is inferior to commercial counterparts in thermal decomposition onset temperature but superior to them in the temperature corresponding to a 50% polymer weight loss.

Complexes of cell-THPC-thiourea-ADP with Ca2+ have been prepared. The thermal stability and smoke suspension of the samples are determined by TG, DTA and cone calorimetry. The activation energies for the second stage of thermal degradation have been obtained by following Broido equation. Experimental data show that for the complexes of cell-THPC-thiourea-ADP with Ca2+, the activation energies and thermal decomposition temperatures are higher than those of cell-THPC-thiourea-ADP, which shows these metal ions can increase the thermal stability of cell-THPC-thiourea-ADP

Thermal Stability Of

The gradual depletion of world petroleum reserves, increases in prices of petroleum based fuels and environmental pollution due to exhaust emissions have encouraged studies to search for alternative fuels. Biodiesel is an alternative diesel fuel consisting of alkyl monoesters of fatty acids derived from vegetable oils. It has been the focus of considerable amount of recent research because it is renewable and reduces the emission of some pollutants. The desirability of developing biodiesel from different tree borne oil seeds and decreasing the dependency on petroleum based fuels has been discussed by many over the last few decades. However some of the important issues like compatibility of biodiesel with the crankcase lubricating oil, thermal stability of lubricating oil with biodiesel usage, changes in physical and chemical properties of lubricating oil with biodiesel etc. have not been sufficiently investigated. This needs to be addressed in order to ensure the long term acceptability of biodiesel in an existing family of diesel engines. In the present work these issues have been addressed. For this purpose engine endurance tests were conducted on CI engines. Two new single cylinder four stroke CI engines were operated for 512 hours each for diesel and 100% biodiesel fuel. The endurance tests were conducted as per BIS 10000 part IX norms. Biodiesel from Jatropha oil was prepared in-house using transesterification process. The sample of lubricating oil was collected through a one way valve connected to the crankcase sump after every 128 hours intervals. Thermograviometric analysis (TGA) was used to evaluate the thermal stability of lubricating oil samples obtained from both the engines. The thermal decomposition of lubricating oil samples were measured as a function of various reaction parameters such as temperature, time and heating rates. This TGA test involves a weight change as the oil was heated. The weight loss data of the sample was logged using the in situ computer. Early decomposition of biodiesel fueled engine lubricating oil was observed as compared to diesel fueled engine lubricating oil. The changes in viscosity of lubricating oil were also monitored during the endurance test and discussed in detail. A higher level of crank case dilution was observed in case of biodiesel as compared to diesel.
