Abstract
► The thermal behavior of virgin and reprocessed PLA under pyrolysis is assessed by TGA. ► A novel function (TDB) and a new parameter (ZDT) to model thermal stability are given. ► The technologies for the control of gases can be transferred to treat reprocessed PLA. ► Six kinetic methods are effectively combined into a complete kinetic methodology. ► The trigger of thermal decomposition increases up to the third recyclate of PLA.
