Waste tyre pyrolysis – A review
Juan Daniel Martínez,Juan Daniel Martínez,Neus Puy,Ramón Murillo,Tomás García,M.V. Navarro,Ana M. Mastral +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review has been carried out in order to show the effects of the main process conditions (heating rate, temperature, pressure, carrier gas flow rate and type, volatiles residence time and pyrolysis time) on physicochemical properties and distributions of the resulting products (gas, liquid and solid fractions).

Mechanical, barrier, and biodegradability properties of bagasse cellulose whiskers reinforced natural rubber nanocomposites
Julien Bras,Mohammad L. Hassan,Cecile Bruzesse,Enas A. Hassan,Nahla A. El-Wakil,Alain Dufresne +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of whiskers loading on tensile properties, thermal properties, moisture sorption, water vapor permeation, and soil biodegradation was studied, and significant improvement of Young's modulus and tensile strength was observed as a result of addition of cellulose whiskers to the rubber matrix especially at high whiskers' loading.

Competitive Reactions in the Thermal Decomposition of Cellulose
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when cellulose is heated it undergoes two competitive reactions and the actual sequence of these is clarified, being different from that previously postulate.

Kinetics of Cellulose Pyrolysis in Nitrogen and Steam
TL;DR: In this paper, a single rate equation for each pyrolysis medium is discussed which provides a good engineering fit to the weight loss curves, and the presence of steam in the pyrolys medium was found to have no measurable affect on cellulose pyrotechnic kinetics.
