Three DTA peaks (two endo and one exothermic) were replotted in the form of ∑ peak area.Δa, or ∑ peak magnitude,ΔT, as a function of temperature. The integral sigmoid curves were plotted in the form of logg(α) vs. 1/T or log logg(α)/T 2 vs. 1/T. Both of the proposed summation methods gave satisfactory straight lines (F 1 function), characterized by the same activation energies, correlation coefficients and standard deviations. Integration of the peak areas by Simpson's rule resulted in the same values as obtained by the summation procedure. Analysis by the suggested integral method resulted in activation energies that show a logarithmic divergence relative to the magnitude ofE a estimated directly from the DTA peaks.

The paper discusses three fast methods for determination of the reaction order, as follows: the single-point method proposed by Kissinger, Horowitz and Metzger, an original two-point method, and the three-point method suggested by a Gorbachev's paper. These methods cannot elucidate the reaction mechanism, but they can help in the rapid derivation of the apparent kinetic parametersn andE.

Abstract  

The aim of the presented work was the investigation of thermal oxidation of ilmenite in static air atmosphere. The investigations were carried out by use of a derivatograph (MOM, Hungary). The changes of crystallographic structure of investigated samples were identified by X-ray diffractometry on Philips PW-1710 diffractometer. In temperature above 500C appears structure of hematite Fe2O3. On the basis of the thermogravimetric measurements, the contracting area and contracting volume models were found as the best fitting experimental data.
