Abstract
Interactions are shown to take place between ammonium polyphosphate and pentaerythritol in thermally degrading mixtures. Up to 500°C, gaseous products are evolved on programmed heating above 200°C in two steps with maximum rate temperatures differing by about 100–150°C. Swelling of the degrading mass seems, however, to be mainly due to gases evolved in the step occurring at the higher temperature. A strong dependence of the degradation process on the experimental conditions is observed.Pubblicazioni consigliate
