Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

A kinetic equation is proposed to describe the nonisothermal degradation of decomposing materials in a broad range of heating rates with allowance for the coking stage. The physical meaning of the parameters of the proposed equation is demonstrated, and examples of analysis of empirical data using the model are presented.
