Abstract

The thermal destruction processes of poly(2- propylheptyl acrylate) take place at the range of tempera- ture 250-950 C was investigated using pyrolysis-gas chromatography. Knowledge of the types and amounts of pyrolysis products will provide important information about the thermal degradation of homopolymer poly(2- propylheptyl acrylate) and the mechanisms involved. Unsaturated monomers 2-propylheptyl acrylate and 2-pro- pylheptyl methacrylate, according to by-product alkyl alcohol 2-propylheptylalcohol, alkene 2-propylheptene-1, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, and ethane were formed during thermal degradation of poly(2-pro- pylheptyl acrylate).
