Abstract
The applicability of popular thermal analysis methods like the one pro posed by Ozawa and Kissinger, or the one derived from the Avrami kinet ic formalism, to non-isothermal nucleation and growth transformation k inetics, is reassessed. Restrictions and limitations of both technique s are reevaluated, in order to clarify when and under which transforma tion conditions is each method justified. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B. V.
