Abstract

The differential thermal analysis of reconstituted tobacco sheet heated at rates of 0.1°C/s to 500°C/s in an inert atmosphere is reported. As the heating rate is increased, the characteristic temperature of each global process observed is increased. Using a non-isothermal first-order kinetic equation, the activation energies and frequency factors are obtained for these bulk decomposition processes
