Abstract

Abstract Analysis of thermogravimetric weight loss data from the literature indicated correlations between the overall energietics of decomposition and characteristics of the thermogravimetric curves for measurements made under nitrogen. Such correlations provide a means for comparing relative thermal stabilities of polymers from easily obtained weight loss data.
