Abstract

A critical study of the use of the iterative linear integral isoconversional method for a parallel reactions process and a successive reactions process has been performed using theoretical simulated nonisothermal data. The activation energies obtained for these complex processes show a strong dependence on the range of heating rates, which is against the assumptions of isoconversional methods. Therefore, a systematic kinetic analysis for discriminating the reactions rather than merely assuming that the activation energy varies with the conversion would be required for understanding the reaction mechanism of these processes.
