Thermal stability of zirconium organic derivatives with ligands of different nature

Specific features of kinetics and mechanism of thermal decomposition of zir conium organic derivatives with ligands of different nature (acetylacetone, dialkylamines, cyclopentadienyl or methyl groups, chloride ion) were studi ed. The nature of the Zr-element (Zr-C, Zr-O, Zr-N) bond has the principal effect on the kinetic features and mechanism of thermal decomposition.
