TGA degradation steps of PACK and PACK–MO.

Material	Step	TGA, T (°C)	DTG, T (°C)	Mass Loss (%)	Notes
PACK	1	25–95	64	5.6	Moisture, volatiles
	2	95–336	296	8.6	Total mass loss = 48.2%, Residue = 51.8%
	3	336–820	767	25.2
	4	820–1000	-	gradual
PACK–MO	1	25–95	51	2.1	Moisture, volatiles
	2	95–265	199	19.1	Total mass loss = 61.1%, Residue = 38.1%
	3	265–445	360	15.6
