The thermal decomposition of aluminium sulfate

The mechanism of thermal decomposition of aluminum sulfate has been investigated in the 500–700°C temperature range using a flow reactor system with the emitted gaseous sulfur oxides collected in a Goksøyr—Ross coil and a hydrogen peroxide impinger. Sulfur trioxide (SO₃) was found to be the primary sulfur oxide released during thermal decomposition (1).

Less than 3% of the released sulfur oxides were sulfur dioxide (SO₂), indicating that the SO₃ dissociation reaction (2) is slow relative to the residence time of the SO₃ in the reactor (～ 1 sec).

The experimental technique should be readily adaptable to the study of the thermal decomposition of other metal sulfates.

Formation of Cr(VI) compounds during the thermal decomposition of amorphous chromium hydroxide

Chromium hydroxide (CH) was prepared by the reduction of purified sodium chromate using starch. CH was then used to prepare chromium oxide (Cr₂O₃). Results of thermogravimetric, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and chemical analyses suggested that a small amount of the initial Cr(VI) content speeds up the oxidation and reduction reactions, thereby promoting the purity and crystallization of Cr₂O₃. Cr(VI) in CH induced the evolution of CH and the formation of Cr(VI) containing compounds including CrO₃, NaCr(CrO₄)₂, Cr₃O₈, and Cr₅O₁₂ at low sintering temperature. Furthermore, homogeneous Cr₂O₃ nanoparticles with 99 % purity and particle size of 50 nm were obtained.     

Structure,thermal stability and decomposition of bis-allyl-zinc compounds

The structure, thermal stability and decomposition of solutions of diallylzinc (I), bis(2-methylallyl)zinc (II), bis(3-methylallyl)zinc (III) and bis(3,3-dimethylallyl)zinc (IV) in deuterated solvents, have been investigated by¹H NMR and by kinetic measurements at temperatures between ?125 and +180°C. At room temperature I, II, III and IV are dynamic systems and are best described as being rapidly equilibrating mixtures of all isomeric σ-allyl forms; the NMR spectra are averages weighted according to the relative concentrations of the respective forms. I displays a¹H NMR spectrum of a static σ-allyl system only below ?125°C and II only below ?115°C. At temperatures above 100°C the thermal decomposition of I–IV results in coupling of the allyl groups, decomposition via radicals being the major process. The coupled products exhibit CIDNP, in which the multiplet polarisations confirm a decomposition via randomly diffusing allyl radicals. In the allyl radicals CH₂CR¹CR²R³ an alternating spin density was proved experimentally. The thermal stability decreases in the order I > II > III > IV.     

Kinetic investigation on thermal decomposition of organophosphorous compounds

In this paper, the thermal behaviours of two organophosphorous compounds, N,N-dimethyl-N′,N′-diphenylphosphorodihydrazidic (NDD) and diphenyl amidophosphate (DPA), were studied by thermogravimetery (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) techniques under non-isothermal conditions. The results showed that NDD melts about 185 °C before it decomposes. NDD decomposition occurs in two continuous steps, in the 190–410 °C temperature range. First thermal degradation stage for NDD results a broad exothermic peak in the DTA curve that is continued with a small exothermic peak at the end of decomposition process. On the other hand, applying TG-DTA techniques indicates that DPA melts about 150 °C before it decomposes. This compound decomposes in the temperature range of 230 to 330 °C in two steps. These steps are endothermic and exothermic, respectively. Activation energy and pre-exponential factor for the first step of decomposition of each compound were found by means of Kissinger method and were verified by Ozawa–Flynn–Wall method. Activation energy obtained by Kissinger method for the first stage of NDD and DPA decompositions are 138 and 170 KJ mol⁻¹, respectively. Finally, the thermodynamic parameters (ΔG ^#, ΔH ^# and ΔS ^#) for first step decomposition of investigated organophosphorous were determined.     

Synthesis and thermal decomposition of double dimethylammonium sulphate hexahydrates of aluminium and chromium

Double sulphates of trivalent aluminium and chromium with dimethylammonium, with general formula (CH₃NH₂M(SO_{4 2}·6H₂O, were synthesized and studied by means of thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis over the range 20–600 °C under dynamic conditions in a flow of dry nitrogen or air, and with the methods of chemical analysis. An X-ray powder diffraction study of the above compound was also undertaken. It is assumed that dimethylammonium aluminium sulphate hexahydrate and dimethylammonium chromium sulphate hexahydrate are isostructural. The mechanism of thermal decomposition of these double salts is also suggested.

Study of the thermal decomposition processes of clathrate compounds

The decompositions of the clathrate compounds [M(NCS)₂(4-MePy)₄]·nG (whereM=Mn, Co, Ni or Cd;G=4-methylpyridine (4-MePy), benzene or xylenes) were studied on a Q-derivatograph under quasi-equilibrium conditions and with linear heating. These clathrates can be divided into two groups, in which the loss of guest is either (I) accompanied by destruction of the host complex, or (II) occurs before decomposition of the host complex. Kinetic parameters were obtained.

Controlled thermal decomposition of NaSi to derive silicon clathrate compounds

Formation conditions of two types of sodium containing silicon clathrate compounds were determined by the controlled thermal decomposition of sodium monosilicide NaSi under vacuum. The decomposition began at 360 °C. Much higher decomposition temperatures and the presence of sodium metal vapor were favorable for the formation of type I clathrate compound Na₈Si₄₆. Type II clathrate compound Na_xSi₁₃₆ was obtained as a single phase at a decomposition temperature <440 °C under the condition without sodium metal vapor. The type I clathrate compound was decomposed to crystalline Si above 520 °C. The type II clathrate compound was thermally more stable, and retained at least up to 550 °C in vacuum.     

Copper-iron oxides obtained by thermal decomposition of oxalic coordination compounds

The influence of the coordination architecture (materialized by ligand binding mode and content) on the thermal behaviour of coordination compounds containing copper, iron and oxalic anion as ligand was investigated. It was established that the metal-metal connections influence stronger, comparative with ligand content, the stoichiometry of the thermal decompositions. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Evolution of aromatic compounds in the thermal decomposition of vinyl polymers

The thermal decomposition products that evolve from poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), poly(vinylbromide) (PVB), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), and poly(vinylacetate) (PVAc) were analyzed by direct pyrolysis in the ion source of a mass spectrometer (MS). Our results indicate that in both stages of the decomposition process which occurred in the four vinyl polymers investigated several aromatic hydrocarbons were produced and that the relative amounts of benzene, napthalene, and anthracene were different in the two stages. This previously unreported information determines in a single scheme the thermal behavior of the title compounds.     

A study of solid-state thermal decomposition characteristics of some metallo-organic compounds

The solid-state dehydration of the hydrated Ca(II), Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) salts of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (picolinic acid) and subsequent decarboxylation of the corresponding anhydrous salts have been studied by simultaneous TG, DTA and DTG. The sequences of thermal stability of the hydrated and the anhydrous compounds have been established from analysis of the TG, DTA and DTG traces for dehydration of the hydrated salts and for decarboxylation of the anhydrous compounds. Thermal parameters such as activation energy, enthalpy change and order of reaction for the different stages of each process have been computed by standard methods. An attempt has been made to account for the observed trend in the thermal stability of the anhydrous salts towards decarboxylation. A mechanism of thermal decraboxylation of calcium picolinate has been proposed.
