Abstract
The thermal stability of poly(acenaphthylene) has been studied by pyrolysis gas-liquid chromatography and pyrolysis mass spectrometry. The principal degradation product is acenaphthylene monomer, with smaller amounts of a similar compound, possibly the saturated acenaphthene. Small yields of a dimeric oligomer were also observed. Mechanisms for product formation are suggested.
