Thermal degradation of organic polymers using different metals as the pyrolysis filament

摘要: Abstract Samples of polystyrene, cis -1,4-polybutadiene, poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly-acrylonitrile were pyrolysed on filaments made from iron, nickel platinum. Iron generally gave the highest yields pyrolysis products. Nickel high at low temperatures, but higher temperatures secondary degradation became important. Platinum lowest yields. Two sample sizes, 5 0.5 μg, used to make it possible separate effects catalysis pure temperature effects.
