Thermal degradation modeling random scission

A better model of thermal degradation by depropagation may be obtained if we distinguish between polymer molecules and radical fragments in the population. Here, we consider radical species being formed from an initial random scission reaction. Once formed, the radical species then undergo... [Pg.497]

The model chosen to describe the degradation of polyethylene was random chain scission. Lenz (3,) in his section on degradation reactions of polymers cites work which supports the contention that polyethylene does thermally degrade in a random chain scission manner as opposed to depolymerization. For this model a statistical treatment has been developed by Montroll and Simha (). The extent of reaction may be related to the number average molecular weight by ... [Pg.423]

Kinetic studies have been made on the thermal decomposition of a poly(oxypropylene)triol-toluene di-isocyanate copolymer foam. Following a diffusion rate-controlled step, the cellular structure collapses to a viscous liquid and degradation then occurs on a random scission basis. Products of degradation of A-monosubstituted and A A-disubstituted polyurethanes have been analysed by direct pyrolysis in the ion source of a mass spectrometer. The mono-substituted polymers depolymerize quantitatively to di-isocyanates and diols, whereas the disubstituted materials decompose selectively to secondary amines, olefins, and carbon dioxide. The behaviour of the monosubstituted polymers has been confirmed in an i.r. study of the degradation of model compounds. A study of the thermal degradation in vacuum of polyurethanes prepared from butanediol, methylene bis(4-phenylisocyanate), and hexanedioic acid-ethylene glycol-propylene glycol polyesters has been reported and reaction mechanisms proposed. ... [Pg.317]

A mathematical model to describe the molecular weight and pofydispersity index in poly (L-lactide) (PLLA) thermal degradation has been developed [10], Based on the random scission mechanism, effects of temperature and time on the molecular weight and polydispersity index are included in this model. [Pg.74]
