Abstract

ABSTRACT The thermal degradation of the wood and bark of the Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) cultivated as monocultures in marginal lands of Ukraine has been investigated using thermogravimetric methods of differential thermal analysis. The activation energy of the trees’ bark and wood destruction processes were calculated for each temperature range. Comparison of DTA curves showed that the thermal effect of oxidative destruction of the Black locust bark as a whole is greater than that of wood, which correlates with a decrease in the activation energy.
