Abstract
Several thermal degradative methods were employed for elucidation of s tructures of two furfuraldehyde insoluble and infusible resins. A comb ination of pyrolysis at reduced pressure, (direct-inlet pyrolysis)-(ma ss spectrometry) and flash-pyrolysis in GC/MS and GC/FT-i.r. systems l ed to the identification of 39 pyrolysis products. From analysis of th e information, three structural precursors of pyrolysate composition w ere established. The major structural features of the resins are propo sed.
