Abstract
The exothermic process which occurs on heating polyacrylonitrile above 200°C. is studied with a differential scanning calorimeter and by following volatiles production. The process is associated with coloration of the polymer and the production of ammonia. It is not due to chain scission degradation, which occurs in this temperature range and also produces volatiles.Keywords
