Abstract
Experiments on the thermal decomposition of CuSe were carried out by using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) at different heating rates. The kinetic parameters and mechanisms were discussed based on model-free and model-based analyses. The decomposition rate and decomposition behavior of CuSe were investigated by using a vacuum thermogravimetric furnace. The results showed that the R3 model was identified as the most probable mechanism function under the present experimental conditions. The average values of activation energy and the pre-exponential factor were 12.344 J/mol and 0.152 s-1, respectively. The actual decomposition rate of CuSe was found to be 0.0030 g/(cm2·min).
