Lignocellulosic biomass gasification is considered as one of the effective methods for transforming scattered biomass into heat, power and various chemicals. As a fundamental step for biomass gasification, pyrolysis has remarkable influence on products distribution and char reactivity during the further step. Further research on the pyrolysis process of lignocellulosic biomass is beneficial to optimize and promote the process of gasification. In this paper, pyrolysis characteristic of a kind of lignocellulosic biomass model compound (cellulose) was explored through thermogravimetric analyzer. The temperature was from 25 °C to 950 °C under various heating rates (10, 20, 40 °C·min-1) with nitrogen atmosphere. A three step selecting method for mechanism function was used to check out the optimum model from fifteen kinds of most frequently used mechanisms. The results indicated that under various heating rates, the optimum mechanism model for the cellulose in this paper was different. The values of activation energy and frequency factor for cellulose pyrolysis calculated by the three step method in this paper under 10, 20, 40 °C·min-1 were 245.95, 212.09 and 144.27 kJ·mol-1, 8.47E+17, 5.35E+18 and 1.20E+11 s-1, respectively.

Pyrolysis Of Biomass

From a carbon cycle perspective, the thermochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass is inherently carbon neutral. Pyrolysis of biomass for energy supplying, such as bio-oil and bio-char, has been attracted much attention worldwide. Successful understanding the fundamental issues about the pyrolysis, including pyrolytic behavior and kinetic analysis of lignocellulosic biomass model compounds and real biomass, is essential for the further understanding and optimizing the pyrolysis process. In this paper, pyrolytic behavior of a typical lignocellulosic agricultural residue (wheat straw) and model compounds (cellulose) were measured through thermogravimetric analysis with various heating rates (10, 20, 40 °C·min-1) under nitrogen atmosphere. The results indicated that the interval of the weight loss for both wheat straw and cellulose moved upwards with the increment of heating rates. The maximum decomposition rates of cellulose were higher than those of wheat straw, and the temperature of maximum decomposition rates increased with the heating rates. Values of activation energy were solved through iso-conversional method. And the average values of activation energy for wheat straw and cellulose were 146.89 kJ·mol-1 and 134.56 kJ·mol-1 calculated from Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method, 144.05 kJ·mol-1 and 130.91 kJ·mol-1 calculated from Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose method, respectively.

In this article, the effect of adding polylactide (PLA) and nanoclay on the thermal stability of polypropylene (PP) films was analyzed using thermogravimetric analysis. The thermal degradation kinetic parameters such as activation energy ( Ea), order of reaction ( n), and frequency factor (ln ( Z)) of the samples were studied over a temperature range of 30–550°C. Analyses were performed under nitrogen atmosphere with four different heating rates (i.e. 5, 10, 15, and 20°C min−1). The Ea was calculated by Kissinger, Kim–Park, and Flynn–Wall methods. The Ea value of PP was much higher than PLA, whereas the addition of PLA and nanoclay in PP decreased the Ea. The addition of compatibilizer increased the compatibility and Ea of blended films upto some extent. The lifetime of PP was found to be decreased with the addition of PLA and nanoclay. Studies indicated that the thermal degradation behavior and lifetime of the investigated samples depend on the fractions of constituents and heating rates.

P3O5-10 pillared Mg/Al hydrotalcite (HTs) as a functional fire-retarding filler was successfully prepared by impregnation-reconstruction, where the HTs was used to prepare polypropylene (PP) and HTs composite (PP/HTs). Thermal decomposition was crucial for correctly identifying the thermal behavior for the PP/HTs, and studied using thermogravimetry (TG) at different heating rates. Based on single TG curves and Málek method, as well as 41 mechanism functions, the thermal decompositions of the PP/HTs composite and PP in nitrogen atmosphere were studied under non-isothermal conditions. The mechanism functions of the thermal decomposition reactions for the PP/HTs composite and PP were separately “chemical reaction F3” and “phase boundary reaction R2,” which were also in good agreement with corresponding experimental data. It was found that the addition of the HTs increased the apparent activation energy Ea of the PP/HTs comparing to the PP, which improved the thermal stability of the polypropylene. A difference in the set of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters was also observed between the PP/HTs and PP, particularly with respect to lower ΔS≠ value assigned to higher thermal stability of the PP/HTs composite.

The thermal stability and decomposition kinetics analysis of 1-alkyl-2,3-dimethylimidazole nitrate ionic liquids with different alkyl chains (ethyl, butyl, hexyl, octyl and decyl) were investigated by using isothermal and nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis combined with thermoanalytical kinetics calculations (Kissinger, Friedman and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Isothermal experiments were performed in a nitrogen atmosphere at 240, 250, 260 and 270 °C. In addition, the nonisothermal experiments were carried out in nitrogen and air atmospheres from 30 to 600 °C with heating rates of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 °C/min. The results of two heating modes, three activation energy calculations and density functional theory calculations consistently showed that the thermal stability of 1-alkyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium nitrate ionic liquids decreases with the increasing length of the alkyl chain of the substituent on the cation, and then the thermal hazard increases. This study could provide some guidance for the safety design and use of imidazolium nitrate ionic liquids for engineering.

Two kinds of thermoplastic polyimides (PIs) were synthesized via a two-step method with 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP), 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) diamine, and 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), and their thermal degradation kinetics was studied by thermogravimetric analysis at different heating rates under nitrogen. Derivative thermogravimetric analysis curves indicated a simple, single-stage degradation process in PI BTDA-BAPP and a two-stage degradation process in PI BTDA-ODA-BAPP. The activation energies ( Eas) of the thermal degradation reaction were determined by the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose methods without a knowledge of the kinetic reaction mechanism. By comparing the values of Ea and weight loss temperatures, it was demonstrated that the thermal stability of PI BTDA-ODA-BAPP was superior to that of PI BTDA-BAPP.

For the first time, nano-scale aluminum hypophosphite (AlPO2) was simply obtained in a two-step milling process and applied in preparation of epoxy nanocomposites varying concentration (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt.% based on resin weight). Studying the cure kinetics and thermal stability of these nanocomposites would pave the way toward the design of high-performance nanocomposites for special applications. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmittance electron microscopy (TEM) revealed AlPO2 particles having domains less than 60 nm with high potential for agglomeration. Excellent (at heating rate of 5 °C/min) and Good (at heating rates of 10, 15 and 20 °C/min) cure states were detected for nanocomposites under nonisothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). While the dimensionless curing temperature interval (ΔT*) was almost equal for epoxy/AlPO2 nanocomposites, dimensionless heat release (ΔH*) changed by densification of polymeric network. Quantitative cure analysis based on isoconversional Friedman and Kissinger methods gave rise to the kinetic parameters such as activation energy and the order of reaction as well as frequency factor. Variation of glass transition temperature (Tg) was monitored to explain the molecular interaction in the system, where Tg increased from 73.2 °C for neat epoxy to just 79.5 °C for the system containing 0.1 wt.% AlPO2. Moreover, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that nanocomposites were thermally stable.

AbstractIn the present study, hydrogen desorption properties of magnesium hydride (MgH2) synthesized from modified waste magnesium chips (WMC) were investigated. MgH2 was synthesized by hydrogenation of modified waste magnesium at 320 °C for 90 min under a pressure of 6 × 106 Pa. The modified waste magnesium was prepared by mixing waste magnesium with tetrahydrofuran (THF) and NaCl additions, applying mechanical milling. Next, it was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) techniques in order to characterize its structural properties. Hydrogen desorption properties were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates (5, 10, and 15 °C/min). Doyle and Kissenger non-isothermal kinetic models were applied to calculate energy (Ea) values, which were found equal to 254.68 kJ/mol and 255.88 kJ/mol, respectively.
