The results of a Fourier transform IR study of the degradation of an acrylonitrile copolymer containing approx. 4 wt% of methacrylic acid, at 130°C under a reduced pressure of 5 x lo-\* Torr, are presented. A mechanism is proposed for the degradation that is consistent with the IR spectral evidence.

Ahstraet-The results of a Fourier Transform study of the degradation of an acrylonitrile copolymer containing approx. 4 wt% of acrylamide at 160°C under a reduced pressure of 5 x IO-* Torr, are presented. A mechanism is proposed for the degradation that is consistent with the IR spectral evidence.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and copolymers of PAN containing comonomers of vinyl acetate (VAc), methacrylic acid (MAA), acrylamide (AM) and other acrylics are important precursors to the formation of carbon fibers. Fourier transform IR spectroscopy has proved to be an excellent technique with which to
Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) results of the thermal degradation of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) copolymers containing varying concentrations of acrylamide (AM) degraded at 200°C in air are presented. These results suggest that reactions other than intramolecular ring formation and intermolecular cr
