Evalution of the Pyrolytic and Kinetics Characteristics of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Oil

Abstract:

The pyrolytic characteristics and kinetics of Xanthoceras sorbifolia oil were investigated at heating rates of 10, 20 and 30 °C min^-1 in an inert atmosphere. The most probable mechanism function and activation energy pre-exponential factors were calculated by the Popescu, FWO and KAS methods. Three stages appeared during pyrolysis: moisture evaporation, primary devolatilization and residual decomposition. Significant differences in the average activation energy, thermal stability, final residuals and reaction rates of the X. sorbifolia oil at different heating rate were observed. Stage II of the X. sorbifolia oil could be described by the Mampel Power equation 22 (n=0.25). The average activation energy of X. sorbifolia oil was 346 kJ mol^-1.
