Abstract
The thermal behaviour of some commercial pesticides was studied by means of simultaneous TG-DSC measurements. Kinetic parameters relating to liquid—gas-phase transition processes were determined via a dynamic TG technique. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry were used to make measurements on the gaseous products.
The liquid—gas-phase transition processes of these compounds seem to be influenced by the substituent groups rather than by the side-chains.
A chlorine substituent destabilizes some compounds, bringing closer together the temperatures of melting and liquid—gas-phase transition processes.
