“…For AP, the weight loss occurred in the ranges of 298.15−373.15, 373.15−506.32, and 506.32−900 K, which arose by the evaporation of physically adsorbed water, the degradation of cellulose and hemicelluloses, and the carbonization of residual cellulose, respectively. 43,44 For AP-G1.0-AMP and AP-G2.0-AMP, the evaporation of physically adsorbed water from 298.15 to 373.15 K is also responsible for the first stage of weight loss. The pyrolysis of cellulose, hemicelluloses, and part of the PAMAM dendrimers causes the second-stage weight loss of the biosorbents from 373.15 to 506.32 K, accounting for 3.56 and 3.42% of the weight loss.…”
