✦ Synopsis


AbstractmThe thermal oxidation of polyacrylonitrile at temperatures between 200 Β° and 375 Β° has been studied. Samples produced by the heating of polyacrylonitrile fibre at various temperatures within this range, for periods of up to 5 hr, were analysed for carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. A continuous and simultaneous exchange of one oxygen atom for two hydrogen atoms was noted. Two distinct types of infra-red reflectance spectra, associated with different oxidation levels, are related to structural changes. Experimental thermodynamic evidence supports a structure comprising a cyclized polyaerylonitrile chain with epoxide oxygen bonding to the apex carbons of the polycyclic arrangement.
