Abstract  

Two methods were employed for measuring fire retardancy of minerals hydromagnesite, huntite and natural hydromagnesite/huntite mixtures, on forest species. The first was based on DTG under N2 atmosphere, to isolate pyrolysis of forest species and the second on LOI for combustion measurements. The selected forest species: Pinus halepensis Mill. and Cistus incanus L., were collected from a WUI zone and were treated with 5, 10, 15 and 20 mass/mass% of minerals. Regarding DTG analysis, the minerals decrease pyrolysis rate and increase mass residue of forest species. Regarding LOI tests, minerals increase pilot ignitability of forest fuels. Hydromagnesite exhibits the best overall performance.

Abstract  

The application of derivativ thermogravimetry (DTG) to investigate polymerisation mechanisms is illustrated using the radical polymerisation of di-n-alkyl itaconates as well as the photoinitiated polymerisation of methyl methacrylate by colloidal CdS. The thermal properties of the resulting polymers are described. The advantages and disadvantages of DTG are discussed.

The computer kinetic analysis of simultaneously obtained TG and DTG curves of CaCO3 decomposition has been carried out. Ten different kinetic equations have been tested to decide the mechanism which drives the reaction. Either a two-thirds kinetic equation (phase boundary process) or a Jander equation (diffusion process) satisfactorily describe the kinetic data of both decomposition curves. From these results we conclude there is no chance of differentiating between these two mechanisms by only the kinetic analysis of TG and DTG curves separately.
