Abstract
The transitions of cellulose acetate (40% acetyl) have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). Two distinct transitions, one at 63°C and the other at 218°C, have been observed. An exothermic peak at 234°C is attributed to crystallization and is analyzed by the Kissinger and the Ozawa methods for calculating the various kinetic parameters.Keywords
