Study of the kinetics of the mechanism of solid-state reactions at increasing temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of the correct selection for the assessment of the progress of the reaction and the acquisition of representative experimental data, as well as the effect of non-isothermal conditions and possible change of the equilibrium on the kinetic equation are stressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Philosophy of non-isothermal kinetics

TL;DR: The most debatable and discrepant viewpoints of non-isothermal kinetics are discussed in the form of twelve questions and answers as discussed by the authors, including the reputation of nonisothermal analysis when carried out by thermoanalysts, the consequences of simplified concepts transferred from the kinetics of homogeneous reactions, the physical meaning of basic kinetic parameters in solid-state processes, the kinetic compensative effect and interdependence of kinetic parameters using the Arrhenius rate constant, the mutual usefulness of differential and integral methods of kinetic data evaluation, their accuracy and correctness, the reliability of
Journal ArticleDOI

Rationale and fallacy of thermoanalytical kinetic patterns

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the modeling tradition in nonisothermal kinetics can be found within its historical maturity from Plato do Penrose, and the properties of interface (reaction separating line) are found decisive in all cases of heterogeneous kinetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Possibilities of two non-isothermal procedures (temperature- or rate-controlled) for kinetical studies

TL;DR: In this paper, the applicability of both conventional Thermal Analysis (TA) and controlled rate thermal analysis (CRTA) for kinetic analysis is discussed, and it is shown that TA method can give a reliable kinetic information and meaningful kinetic parameters especially for solid state transformation.
