Abstract
The kinetics of thermal dehydration of microcrystalline powders and single-crystals of barium chlorate monohydrate were studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The computer elaboration of thermal data showed that a single kinetic law could not account for the whole decomposition; moreover, different laws had to be used for powders than for single-crystals, whose reaction appeared diffusion-limited towards the end of the dehydration. Optical microscopy was extensively used as an independent source of information to clarify some of the thermal results and to gain a deeper insigth into the possible reaction mechanism.
