AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study investigates the thermal decomposition mechanisms of 1,2-propylene glycol using both theoretical calculations and experiments, focusing on processes like carbon chain break, dehydrogenation, and dehydration.
  • - Results show that dehydration is the main mechanism at low temperatures, while carbon chain break dominates at high temperatures, producing key compounds like acetaldehyde, propanal, and acetone, which match experimental findings.
  • - This research aims to enhance understanding of pyrolysis mechanisms for 1,2-propylene glycol, offering valuable data for efficient polyol pyrolysis technology and serving as a guide for selecting low-toxic tobacco humectants.

Article Abstract

The multiple thermal decomposition mechanisms of 1,2-propylene glycol are studied through theoretical calculation and experiment, including carbon chain break, dehydrogenation and dehydration mechanism. The wavefunction is employed to analyze the decomposition process from a micro perspective. DLPNO-CCSD(T)/CBS method is engaged in establishing potential energy surface. The results reveal that the dehydration and carbon chain break mechanism are the primary pyrolysis paths, and the former is the dominant pyrolysis mechanism at low temperature, while the latter is applicable at the high temperature. The pyrolysis products are mainly acetaldehyde, propanal and acetone, which is consistent with experimental results. Besides, the comparison results of 1,2-propylene glycol and glycerol pyrolysis products indicate that the increment of hydroxyls are conducive to the generation of carbonyl compounds during the polyol thermal decomposition. This work is aimed to comprehensively investigate the pyrolysis mechanism of 1,2-propylene glycol and provide the valuable thermodynamics and kinetic data for developing efficient polyol pyrolysis technology. Furthermore, it provides a reference for choosing low-toxic tobacco humectant.
