Thermal decomposition kinetics of sorghum straw via thermogravimetric analysis.
TLDR
The thermal decomposition of sorghum straw was investigated by non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis, where the determination of kinetic triplet (activation energy, pre-exponential factor, and reaction model), was the key objective.About:
