Pyrolytic and kinetic characteristics of the thermal decomposition of Perilla frutescens polysaccharide.

The thermal decomposition of Perilla frutescens polysaccharide was examined by thermogravimetry, differential thermogravimetry, and differential thermal analysis. The results showed that the mass loss of the substance proceeded in three steps. The first stage can be attributed to the expulsion of th...
