What are the primary gases evolved during the initial decomposition region (100-400 °C) of furan-based epoxy resins?

Label:chem

Topic
Evolved gas analysis using TGA-MS was conducted to investigate the volatiles formed during the initial decomposition.
Answer
During the initial decomposition region (100-400 °C), all three furan-based polymers (PolyFDE, PolyMethyl-FDE, and PolyTGDFDA) produced methane, water, acetylene, ethane or nitric oxide, propene, carbon dioxide, diacetylene, and furan. Water and carbon dioxide were generated as a result of furan ring opening.
