Abstract:
Thermogravimetric analysis was used to study the thermal decomposition kinetics of the thermotropic liquid crystalline polyamide at different heating rates in streams of N2 and air. The mechanism function was identified with the kinetic parameters obtained from the analysis of TG-DTG curves by the Friedman method, the Kissinger method, the Ozawa method and the Coats-Redfern method. The most probable kinetic function of the thermal decomposition in N2 was Avrami-Erofeev theorem. The activation energy is 208 kJ/mol. The most probable kinetic function of the thermal decomposition in air of the first stages was Mempel Power theorem. The activation energy is 172 kJ/mol. The most probable kinetic function of the thermal decomposition in air of the second stages was reverse Jander theorem. The activation energy is 111 kJ/mol. The lifetime at weight-loss of 5% at different temperature was deduced by isothermal TG analysis.
