“…The master decomposition curve (MDC) methodology is generally used to construct a systematic plot for several time‐temperature cycles with a given polymeric material. These MDC curves are formulated based on the intrinsic kinetics of polymer pyrolysis based on the method of DiAntonio et al30 Typically, the TGA curves of polymer degradation follow a single sigmoid path. However, multi‐component systems may have two or more sigmoids due to the different molecular weights and degradation paths of various polymer components 31.…”

Effect of heating rate, Pd content, and synthesis method on the thermal stability of the ex situ and in situ Palladium/polycarbonate (Pd/PC) nanocomposites was investigated. TEM images revealed discrete Pd nanoclusters of about 5 and 15 nm sizes for 1 and 2 vol % ex situ nanocomposites, respectively. However, agglomerated Pd nanoclusters were noticed in the in situ samples, irrespective of the Pd content. The ex situ Pd/PC nanocomposites showed high onset temperature (Ti) for thermal degradation of PC than the in situ and pure PC samples. Pd content and heating rates were found to have a positive influence on the Ti and Tm (temperature at the maximum degradation rate occurs) of the Pd/PC nanocomposites. Thermal degradation of the PC was found to follow the first-order kinetics in the Pd/PC nanocomposites. The activation energies associated with the degradation were determined by using the Kissinger method. These activation energies are used to construct the Master decomposition curve (MDC) and weight-time-temperature (a-t-T) plots that describe the time-temperature dependence of the PC pyrolysis in the Pd/ PC nanocomposites. These constructed a-t-T plots were validated with the data from isothermal measurements.

“…In reality, the MSC cannot only be successfully applied to sintering of nano-sized particles, but also to some non-sintering systems [8]. The model has also been applied to grain growth by German [9].…”

“…Some authors have produced alternative calculations of MSC, including other properties related to the thermal history and diffusion process, for example, grain growth, weight loss on organic components elimination. 20,[23][24][25] Complementary, a substantial discussion about the limitations of the MSC approach has been performed by Frueh 26 and collaborators.…”

A software for the Master Sintering Curve (MSC) approach has been developed using Python language. An interface with simple steps allows the user to insert data from shrinkage results followed for conversion to densification view and built curves based on MSC theory. The simple software language allows easy adaptation to external users and their specific issues, aiming to improve the sintering phenomena investigation. Finally, three ceramic materials have been analyzed, demonstrating the software operation.

Extension of Master Sintering Curve Theory to Organic Decomposition

Abstract: The LTCC samples used in this study were obtained directly from the manufacturer (Dupontt) in the laminated configuration. The forming process conditions are considered proprietary and will not be addressed in this paper.
