Abstract

The single phase NH4Co0.9Zn0.1PO4·H2O was prepared via solid-state reaction at 80 °C. Based on a simplified version of advanced isoconversional procedure, the values of activation energy E α associated with the first, second, and third stages of the thermal decomposition of NH4Co0.9Zn0.1PO4·H2O were obtained, which demonstrates that the third stage is a kinetically complex process, and the first and second stages are single-step kinetic processes and can be described by a unique kinetic triplet [E α, A, and g(α)]. The most probable reaction mechanisms of the first two stages were estimated by the comparison between experimental plots and modeled results. The values of pre-exponential factor A of the two stages were obtained on the basis of E α and the reaction mechanisms. The distributed activation energy model was applied to study the third stage. Besides, some thermodynamic functions of transition state complexes (ΔS , ΔH , and ΔG ) of the two stages were also calculated.
