Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The thermal decomposition of copolymers based on polyethylene glycol fumarate with acrylic acid in oxygen and nitrogen were studied. The activation energies at different degrees of conversion were evaluated by the Friedman and Flynn–Ozawa–Wall kinetic methods. It was found, using the nonparameteric kinetic methods, that the reaction rate depends on the temperature and degree of conversion in air and inert media.
