Abstract
Terbium trifluoromethanesulfonate compound with hexamethylphosphoramide was synthesized and characterized. Thermogravimetric data with three heating r ates were used to obtain kinetic parameters such as activation energy (E-n) , reaction order (n) and preexponential factor (k(0)). The results obtained by two different methods, Zsako's and a nonlinear one, are compared. (C) 2 000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
