Low heating rates can reduce distortions.
Lower heating rates favour liquid and char yields.
Heating rates ranged from 0.0167 to 0.167 K/s.
For high temperatures, the lower heating rates produce less burst strains, whereas higher heating rates yield greater burst strains.
These heating rates simulate conditions of the combustion front.
The products obtained from various heating rates were all amorphous.
Slower heating rates favored oxygen gain and, consequently, higher glass transition temperatures (Tg) as opposed to faster heating rates.
Higher heating rates increased the porosity of the TH-rGO.
TGA can be employed only at relatively low heating rates (1 50 °C/min) because the true temperature of the samples may become unknown at high heating rates.
The results also showed that the water-based paint performed better at low heating rates, while the tested solvent-based paint performed better at high heating rates and did not activate or provide proper insulation at very low heating rates.
The dashed and dot-dashed lines are HI and HeII heating rates.
