The effects of MnFe2O4 nanocatalyst addition toward HDPE plastic waste pyrolysis have been investigated by performing experiments on METTLER TOLEDE TGA DSC1 Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer at heating rates of 10 o C/min by nitrogen and temperatures range from room temperature to 1000 o C. The results of pyrolysis showed that the main polymer components of HDPE plastic waste, both, with and without MnFe2O4 nanocatalyst addition degraded in one stage. The MnFe2O4 nanocatalyst addition increases the maximum mass loss rate of HDPE plastic waste pyrolysis, however, it increase the degradation of the initial temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
