A criterion for threshold gas phase thermal ignition of cellulose materials heated ~ith radiant energy is analytically derived from theory. The derived threshold criterion, which does not depend upon detailed infornmtion on gas phase kinetics, states that the radiant heat flux applied to the fuel mu

Numerical simulations reveal that the time required for rapid pyrolysis of cellulosic biopolymer particles (diameter d 0.5 mm) is composed of a heatup time th and a devolatilization time fd. Approximations of fh and td are given by the time required for radiative and convective heat transfer to rais
The natural aging of cellulosic materials (high purity paper, cotton, raw and bleached flax, viscose) was simulated by thermal oxidation in air at constant temperature (123 -192 8C). Also the synergetic effect of light was investigated at 50 -85 8C. The kinetics of polymer degradation was followed t
