Thermal Analysis in Propellant Stability Examinations

The thermal analysis of powders and propellants extends the possibilities of study of their chemical stability. Two models of double and triple base powders were analysed by differential scanning calorimetry. Their chemical stabilities were determined by using classical analytical methods. The thermal explosions of the powders were analysed. It was shown that the thermal decompositions of double and triple base powders are controlled by the consumption of nitro-ester stabilizers.

Thermal hazards evaluation of cumene hydroperoxide mixed with its derivatives

Over 90% of the cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) produced in the world is applied in the production of phenol and acetone. The additional applications were used as a catalyst, a curing agent, and as an initiator for polymerization. Many previous studies from open literature have verified and employed various aspects of the thermal decomposition and thermokinetics of CHP reactions. An isothermal microcalorimeter (thermal activity monitor III, TAM III), and a thermal dynamic calorimetry (differential scanning calorimetry, DSC) were used to resolve the exothermic behaviors, such as exothermic onset temperature (T ₀), heat power, heat of decomposition (ΔH _d), self-heating rate, peak temperature of reaction system, time to maximum rate (TMR), etc. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry was used to analyze the CHP products with its derivatives at 150 °C. This study will assess and validate the thermal hazards of CHP and incompatible reactions of CHP mixed with its derivatives, such as acetonphenone (AP), and dimethylphenyl carbinol (DMPC), that are essential to process safety design.

Thermal behavior of nickel/metal hydride battery during charging and discharging

This work discusses thermal behavior of Ni/MH battery with experimental methods. The present work not only provides a new way to get more exactly parameters and thermal model, but also concentrates on thermal behavior in discharging period. With heat generation rate gained by experiments with microcalorimeter, heat transport equations are set up and solved. The solutions are compared with experiment results and used to understand the reactions inside the battery. Experiments with microcalorimeter provide more reliable data to create precise thermal model.     

How much is the accuracy of activation energy affected by ignoring thermal inertia?

This work estimates the magnitude of the effect of thermal inertia on the value of the activation energy determined from heat-flux differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data. The estimates are obtained via analysis of the literature data on crystallization of copper and thermal degradation of isotactic polystyrene (iPS). The copper crystallization data have been obtained for very large masses (200 mg) and fast heating rates up to 80 K min⁻¹. The iPS degradation data have been collected on small masses (3 mg) and at the heating rates up to 20 K min⁻¹. For crystallization of copper, the Kissinger activation energy obtained from the DSC data corrected for thermal inertia is 34% larger than the value estimated from uncorrected data. This difference drops to 8% and becomes statistically insignificant when the fastest heating rate used is decreased to 10 K min⁻¹. For iPS degradation, the difference in the isoconversional activation energies estimated, respectively, from corrected and uncorrected DSC data is less than 3% and is not statistically significant. Overall, the effect of thermal inertia on the activation energy appears negligible provided that DSC measurements are conducted on smaller samples and at slower heating rates, that is, as advised by the International Confederation for Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry (ICTAC) recommendations. It is suggested that the difference in the activation energies should generally be within the typical 5-10% uncertainty as long as the product of the time constant and the maximum heating rate does not exceed 2-3 K.

Progress in Non-parametric Kinetics

The non-parametric kinetics (NPK) method has been recently developed for the kinetic treatment of thermoanalytical data. The most significant feature of this method is its ability to provide information about the reaction kinetics without any assumptions either about the functionality of the reaction rate with the degree of conversion or the temperature. This paper presents the results of the application of the method to adiabatic calorimetry. Some data have been obtained by numerical simulation, but also the thermal decomposition of DTBP, a well known first order reaction, has been studied, being the obtained results in good agreement with literature.

Pyrolysis Analysis and Kinetics of Crude Oils

This research presents the results of an experimental study on the determination of pyrolysis behaviour and kinetics of six crude oils by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG/DTG). Crude oil pyrolysis indicated two main temperature ranges where loss of mass was observed. The first region between ambient to 400°C was distillation. The second region between 400 and 600°C was visbreaking and thermal cracking. Arrhenius-type kinetic model is used to determine the kinetic parameters of crude oils studied. It was observed that as crude oils gets heavier (°API decreases) cracking activation energy increases. Activation energy of cracking also show a general trend with asphaltene content.
