A theory for approximately steady thermal degradation of solids is developed from a superset of nonlinear integral-differential equations. The theory extends previous work, using a degradation model that is more consistent than previously published models and fully accounts for surface radiation los

A new kinetic model was developed to describe the thermal degradation behavior of polymers. The model was applied to predict the degradation of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blended with propyl ester phosphazene (FR). The results showed that the thermal degradation mechanism of pure PMMA was domi
This paper presents a semi-detailed and lumped kinetic model of poly(chloroprene) thermal degradation. This is the extension of a previous paper in which a polyvinylchloride (PVC) pyrolysis mechanism was presented. The mechanism of 38 species and pseudocomponents (molecules and radicals) involved in
