Studies on pyrolysis of Nomex polyaramid fibers

The pyrolysis behavior of Nomex [poly(m-phenylene isophtalamide)] fibers under argon was studied using thermoanalytical and infrared spectroscopic methods to get direct information on the progressive changes undergone by the solid material and its carbon fiber residues. Simultaneous thermogravimetry...

Simultaneous thermogravimetry (TG)–differential thermal analysis (DTA) measurements were carried out in a thermobalance in order to establish the different steps in the thermal degradation of Nomex.

An intermediate aryl nitrile forms from heterolytic decomposition of Nomex above 433°C and decomposes totally at 698°C. From 473°C onwards, the DRIFTS spectra evidence a drop in intensity of amide bands in parallel with increases in primary amine and carbonyl groups. Total disappearance of amide bands (607°C) is followed by a DTA exotherm at 627°C attributed to condensation reactions. Accordingly, CC skeletal vibrations in polyaromatic networks develop confirming the occurrence of a progressive loss of heteroatoms and an increase in aromaticity.Financial support from CICYT (project 1FD1997–1915) is gratefully acknowledgedPeer reviewedElsevierComisión Interministerial de Ciencia y Tecnología, CICYT (España)Villar Rodil, Silvia [0000-0002-5832-9971]Martínez Alonso, Amelia [0000-0002-7183-0859]Díez Tascón, Juan Manuel [0000-0001-9219-7266]Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]201820182001info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Postprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersionhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/172777reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
