Kinetics and Energetics of High-Temperature Pyrolysis of Highly Filled Elastomers

Based on an analysis and generalization of the results of theoretical and experimental studies of the basic laws of physicochemical transformations that occur in highly filled elastomers upon heating, a differential mathematical model of the kinetics and energy of the pyrolysis process of these materials is formulated. A distinctive feature of the model is the inclusion of changes in the composition of the material during heating to high temperatures, as well as the influence of the heating rate on the process parameters. The results of numerical studies are in satisfactory agreement with experimental data.
