Thermal analysis of azoic dyes: Part I. Non-isothermal decomposition kinetics of [4-(4-chlorobenzyloxy)-3-methylphenyl](p-tolyl)diazene in dynamic air atmosphere
Thermal analysis of [4-(4-chlorobenzyloxy)-3-methylphenyl](p-tolyl)diazene dye, was performed in dynamic air atmosphere. The Compound behavior was investigated using TG, DTG, DTA and DSC techniques, under non-isothermal linear regime. Kinetic parameters of the two decomposition steps were evaluated by means of multi-heating rates methods, such as "mode-free" kinetic methods, IKP method, Perez-Maqueda et al. criterion and Master plot procedure. It was shown that the conversion function which describes the process it is not necessary one of the best-fitting functions (when using single-heating rate methods). IKP method can however reduce the possibilities of choosing the true function which can be precisely obtained by applying discrimination methods. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
