Cellulose Pyrolysis Kinetics: Revisited
Abstract
In the same thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) under identical conditions, samples of pure, ash-free cellulose (i.e., Avicel PH-105, Whatman CF-11, Millipore ash-free filter pulp, and Whatman #42) obtained from different manufacturers undergo pyrolysis at temperatures which differ by as much as 30 °C. Thus, the pyrolysis chemistry of a sample of pure cellulose is not governed by a universal rate law, as is the case with a pure hydrocarbon gas (for example). Nevertheless, the pyrolytic weight loss of all the samples studied in this work is well represented by a high activation energy (228 kJ/mol), first-order rate law at both low and high heating rates. These results do not corroborate the recent findings of Milosavljevic and Suuberg ( Ind. Eng. Chem. Res . 1995, 34, 1081−1091). For a particular cellulose sample (for example, Avicel PH-105), variations in the preexponential constant determined at different heating rates reflect uncontrolled, systematic errors in the dynamic sample temperature measurement (thermal lag).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
