Figure 1B:
Reaction progress
(TG, normalized signals) of an inorganic pigment as a function of time
for 6 different heating rates. Experimental data are represented as
symbols, solid lines represent the calculated relationships
-t.
The values of the heating rate in °C/min are marked on the curves.
The TG data collected during non-isothermal decomposition of an
inorganic pigment with a rate of 2.5, 4, 6, 9, 14 and 21.5 K/min were
used for the determination of the kinetic parameters used later for the
prediction of the reaction extent. The experimental conditions such as
sample mass, atmosphere and gas flow rate were identical in all
experiments. In Figs. 1A-B, the experimental data of the TG signals are
presented and compared with the calculated curves of
-T
and
-t.
