Abstract
Experimental weight loss data are presented for the pyrolysis of three reinforced polymeric materials that were heated in nitrogen to temperatures as high as 700°C at constant heating rates from 10°C/min to 4200°C/min. Tests at low heating rates were conducted with a Mettler Thermoanalyzer. A thin-film technique was used to obtain high heating rate data. Extrapolation of low heating rate results to high heating rate conditions is not reliable. However, data for each material over a wide range of heating rates are correlated quite satisfactorily by a single kinetic equation, wherein the kinetic parameters are determined by the quasilinearization technique.
