The thermal degradation behaviors and reaction kinetics of medical waste infusion bag (IB) and nasal oxygen cannula (NOC) were investigated under inert atmosphere with the heating rates of 5, 10, 15, and 25 K·min−1. Ozawa–Flynn–Wall (OFW), Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS), and Friedman were employed to estimate the activation energy. Coats–Redfern and Kennedy–Clark methods were adopted to predict the possible reaction mechanism. The results suggested that the reaction mechanism of IB pyrolysis was zero-order, and that of NOC pyrolysis was concluded that zero-order for the first stage and three-dimensional diffusion Jander equation for the second stage. Based on the kinetic compensation effect, the reconstructed reaction models for IB and NOC pyrolysis were elaborated by introducing adjustment functions. The results indicated that the reconstructed model fitted well with the experimental data. The results are helpful as a reference and provide guidance for the determination of IB and NOC degradation behaviors and the simulation of parameters.

Two kinds of thermoplastic polyimides (PIs) were synthesized via a two-step method with 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP), 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) diamine, and 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), and their thermal degradation kinetics was studied by thermogravimetric analysis at different heating rates under nitrogen. Derivative thermogravimetric analysis curves indicated a simple, single-stage degradation process in PI BTDA-BAPP and a two-stage degradation process in PI BTDA-ODA-BAPP. The activation energies ( Eas) of the thermal degradation reaction were determined by the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose methods without a knowledge of the kinetic reaction mechanism. By comparing the values of Ea and weight loss temperatures, it was demonstrated that the thermal stability of PI BTDA-ODA-BAPP was superior to that of PI BTDA-BAPP.

A new conjugated polymer containing a bithiazole group is prepared by the polycondensation of 2,2'-diamino-4,4'-bithiazole and terephthaldialdehyde in the presence of glacial acetic acid. The kinetics of thermal degradation of the new polymer are investigated by thermogravimetric analysis at different heating rates. The temperature corresponding to the maximum rate loss shifts to higher temperatures with increasing heating rate. The thermal decomposition activation energies of the conjugated polymer in a conversion range of 3–15 % are 288.4 and 281.1 kJ/mol by the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa and Kissinger methods, respectively. The Horowitz–Metzger method shows that the thermodegradation mechanism of the conjugated polymer proceeds over a three-dimensional diffusion type deceleration D3 mechanism. The optimum heating rate is 20 ºC/min.

Thermal behaviors and combustion kinetics of Thai lignite with different SO3-free CaO contents were investigated. Nonisothermal thermogravimetric method was carried out under oxygen environment at heating rates of 10, 30, and 50°C min−1from ambient up to 1300°C. Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) and Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) methods were adopted to estimate the apparent activation energy (E) for the thermal decomposition of these coals. Different thermal degradation behaviors were observed in lignites with low (14%) and high (42%) CaO content. Activation energy of the lignite combustion was found to vary with the conversion fraction. In comparison with the KAS method, higherEvalues were obtained by the FWO method for all conversions considered. High CaO lignite was observed to have higher activation energy than the low CaO coal.

To study the influences of the acid-washing on the characteristics of soybean stalk pyrolysis , and search the high-efficiency catalyst for biomass pyrolysis, pyrolysis experiments of soybean stalk pretreated by 0.1mol/L HCl acid solution were performed by nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at five different heating rates. The results showed the pyrolysis process of HCl-washed soybean stalk can be separated into four stages (water loss, depolymeri-zation and vitrification, thermal decomposition, and carbonization). At the same heating rate, the maximum pyrolysis rate of HCl-washed is larger than untreated soybean stalk, but the corresponding temperature is higher. All the DTG (differential thermogravimetric) curveas appear a smaller shoulder peak respectively. With the heating rate increasing, the main pyrolysis zone of the TG (thermogravimetric) and DTG curves move to the high-temperature direction, and the maximum pyrolysis rate and its corresponding temperature increase too. HCl-wahsed makes the weight loss rate of the final temperature increase 5% approximately. The value area of activation energy of the main pyrolysis area is 140.19~174.59 kJ/mol calculated by the method of Ozawa. The Šatava method inferred the most possible mechanism function of HCl-wahsed soybean stalk is Zhuralev-Lesakin-Tempelman equation, which is three-dimensional diffusion.

PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) nanocomposites differing in their nature, size, and surface area were prepared containing one volume percent of silica, alumina or titania. These samples and pure PMMA were prepared in order to analyze how the presence of nanooxides affects the thermal stability and degradation kinetics of the materials. A detailed study of thermal degradation and thermal changes was performed by Simultaneous Thermogravimetry and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (SDT). The proposed mathematical model, including all three heating rates in one minimizing function, well fitted all TGA data obtained with a very high coefficient of correlation. This enabled an assessment of four decomposition steps of the PMMA samples and a calculation of their activation energies and individual contributions to total mass loss. The addition of the largest nanoparticles (titania) caused the highest activation energy for each DTG stage of the PMMA/nanooxide systems. The enhancement of head-to-head H–H bonding strength was achieved by addition of alumina and titania. The influence of the size and nature of nanoparticles on the glass transition temperature of prepared PMMA systems was also determined.

Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were incorporated into a nylon 6 film via a dry process which consisted of simultaneous vaporization, penetration and reduction processes of palladium (II) bis (acetylacetonate, Pd (acac)2) at 180°C for various exposure time. The even dispersion of the generated Pd nanoparticles were observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and the Pd loading weight of about 15~43 wt% was measured by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). In order to study the catalytic effect of Pd nanoparticles on the thermal degradation kinetics of nylon 6, TGA data at various heating rates were introduced to Flynn & Wall equation. The thermal degradation activation energy for neat nylon 6 was ca. 162~178 kJ/mol over the thermal degradation fraction of 0.05~0.40 while that of the nylon 6/Pd (26.5 wt%) nanocomposite was ca. 110~169 kJ/mol over the same fraction range. It meant the Pd nanoparticles were acted as a catalyst on the depolymerization of amide group in nylon 6. It was also found that the activation energy decreased slightly with the increasing Pd loading weight.

AbstractIn this article, the influence of polylactide and pro-oxidant on the thermal stability, degradation kinetics, and lifetime of polypropylene has been investigated using thermogravimetric analysis under nitrogen atmosphere at four different heating rates (i.e. 5, 10, 15, and 20°C/min). The kinetic parameters of degradation were studied over a temperature range of 30–550°C. The derivative thermogravimetric curves have indicated single stage and two stage degradation processes. The activation energy was evaluated by using the Kissinger, Kim-Park, and Flynn-Wall methods under the nitrogen atmosphere. The activation energy value of polypropylene was much higher than that of polylactide. Addition of polylactide and pro-oxidant in polypropylene decreased the activation energy. The lifetime of polypropylene has also decreased with the addition of polylactide and pro-oxidant.

A high temperature vulcanized (HTV) silicone rubber/octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) hybrid was prepared. The micromorphology of the cured hybrid was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM); the thermal degradation stability of this hybrid was studied by means of thermal gravimetric analyses (TGA); the degradation kinetics of this hybrid was also studied using Doyle method and Coats-Redfern method. Results showed that aggregation of self-cross-linked octavinyl POSS appeared in the HTV silicon rubber/POSS hybrid. The incorporation of POSS into silicon rubber networks enhanced the thermal degradation resistance of the matrix. Activation energy derived by the Coats-Redfern method (142.24 kJ/mol) showed a good agreement with the mean value derived by the Doyle method (146.51 kJ/mol); the thermal degradation reaction of the hybrid followed a three-dimensional diffusion law (D4).
