The kinetics of thermal decomposition of AlIII -, CrIII -, FeIII ,CeIII and LaIII -alginate complexes have been studied using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermogravimetry (DTG) techniques in static air. However, the TG curves showed three distinct stages of weight loss, the DTG curves indicated the presence of a series of thermal peaks associated with the TG curves. The results revea...

This is the first comprehensive study on the kinetic modeling of adiabatic decomposition of ditert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) and its solvent mixtures. The adiabatic thermal decomposition of DTBP and its solvent mixtures was examined using an accelerating rate calorimeter under varying thermal inertia. The decomposition products were characterized using gas chromatography-total inorganic carbon anal...

Cumene Hydroperoxide (CHP) has been used in the production of Dicumyl Hydroperoxide (DCPO) and phenol. In Taiwan, several severe fire or explosion incidents have occurred due to its thermal instability or reactivity. In this research, the exothermic decomposition of CHP in Cumene was characterized by isothermal microcalorimeter, TAM (thermal activity monitor), because isothermal testing offers ...

      In this work, thermal degradation behavior of a fuel-rich energetic mixture containing epoxy binder was studied by thrmogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry under dynamic nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates. Variation of the thermal degradation activation energy of the mixture was evaluated by differential and integral isoconversional methods via ...

In this paper, CuO nanoparticles  have been synthesized via solid- state thermal decomposition using copper(II) Schiff base complexes as new precursors at 600ºC under air atmosphere for 3 h. Surface morphology of the products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

in this paper, we used tetranuclear copper (ii) schiff base complexes, [cu4 (μ-sal2hn) (μ-n3)2(n3)2] (1) and [cu4 (μ-salophen) (μ1, 1-n3)2(n3)2] (2), as new precursor in solid-state thermal decomposition for the synthesis of cuo nanoparticles. the crystallinity, purity and morphology of the cuo nanoparticles were characterized by fourier transform infrared (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and s...

Incomplete combustion of carbon based materials produces fine, carbon rich particles. Controlled manufacturing of very pure carbon nanoparticles (Carbon Black) can be achieved by, for example, thermal decomposition of gaseous precursors like acetylene and methane. Molecular dynamics simulations of hydrocarbon growth after non-catalyzed thermal decomposition of methane were carried out in order ...

To analyze the photothermal ablation of polymers, we designed a temperature measurement setup based on spectral pyrometry. The setup allows to acquire 2D temperature distributions with 1 μm size and 1 μs time resolution and therefore the determination of the center temperature of a laser heating process. Finite element simulations were used to verify and understand the heat conversion and heat ...
