The analyses of structure change during pyrolysis of cellulose at different heating rates were investigated to clarify the existent behavior of the cross-linking reaction. For structural analyses of cellulose precursors, FTIR spectra and XRD patterns confirmed that the dehydration reaction to produce water and cross-liked precursor simultaneously occurred with the glycosidic reaction to produce tar during pyrolysis. On the basis of the assumptions that hydroxyl groups in cellulose converted to water, a new parameter index, so-called the degree of dehydration during pyrolysis, Xp, including its distribution in char (Xc) and tar (Xt), was determined. For the cross-linking analyses at low heating rate, cross-linking reaction may occur until approximately 360 °C where Xc reached its maximum, while the cross-linked tar seems to be released above 360 °C. For tar analyses, cross-linked dimer can be observed for slow pyrolysis, whereas tar products obtained by flash pyrolysis showed relatively higher yield in cellobiosan with no cross-linked volatiles. Finally, based on previous kinetic models, the modified pathway of cellulose pyrolysis was proposed by considering the proposed parameter related to the dehydration. 6 Energy & fuels 23 ARTICULO Chaiwat, Weerawut 42341 Hasegawa, Isao 36085 Tani, Takaaki 42342 170816 170816 0 0 0 0 238635 BAAB BAAB 2026-03-05 200045670 0 200045670 2026-03-05 15:13:09 2026-03-05 ARTICULO
