Thermal analysis of Micro, Nano- and Non-Crystalline Materials

Part of the book series: Hot Topics in Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry ((HTTC,volume 9))

Abstract

As all classic methods for kinetic analysis of data from thermal analysis experiments, the nonparametric kinetics method, NPK, assumes that the general expression for the reaction rate of a simple reaction is

$$ {\dot{\alpha } = g(\alpha ) \cdot f(T)} $$
(16.1)

where g(α) symbolizes the kinetic model of the process and f(T) accounts for the temperature dependence of the reaction.
