The thermal decomposition of ammonium aluminum carbonate hydroxide was studied under non-isothermal conditions in air. The decomposition kinetics were evaluated from data of TG-DTA by means of the Kissinger equation and the Coats-Redfern equation. The values of the activation energy E, the preexponential factor A and the algebraic expression of integral G(α) functions of the thermal decomposition were calculated. The ammonium aluminum carbonate hydroxide (AACH) was characterized by X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric and field emission scanning electron microscopy.

The compound Th13Te24O74 was prepared by three independent methods, namely, thermal decomposition of ThTe2O6 in oxygen and argon and direct solid-state reaction of ThO2 and TeO2. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the three products, by and large, are similar, except for some differences in intensities and extra diffraction lines. The thermal decomposition of ThTe2O6 was carried out in the streams of oxygen and argon by thermogravimetry at a heating rate of 5 K/min in the temperature range of 725–840 °C. The solid-state reaction of ThO2 and TeO2 (13:24) was carried out in a sealed ampoule at 700 °C. The measured density of this compound is 8.23 g/cm3. An orthorhombic lattice with unit cell parameters, a=11.310±0.005 Å, b=14.064±0.006 Å, c=9.056±0.004 Å, and volume of 1440.419±1.088 (Å)3 was determined for this compound.

The kinetics of the solid-state reaction Y2BaCuO5 + 3BaCuO2 + 2CuO ⇉ 2YBa2Cu3O6.5−x + xO2 was studied by using x-ray diffractometric and thermogravimetric analyses. Both analyses established that the reaction was well described by the kinetic equation: 1 − 3(1 − F)2/3 + 2(1 − F) = k0 exp(− E/RT)t, where F is the fractional conversion of a calcined powder, E is 520 kcal/molc and, for a rcactant mixture with an average particle size of 3 μm, k0 is 2.03 ⊠ 1092 min−1. An unreacted-core shrinking model was proposed to obtain the particle-size dependence of the reaction, and predicted that the pre-exponential constant k0 changed with reactant particle size by k0 = 2.03 ⊠ 1092(3/d)2 exp(4/d − 4/3), where d is the average reactant particle size in μm.

Ag8Ge3O10 was obtained from a mixture of the binary oxides by solid state reaction in the presence of a small amount of water which is acting as an accelerator. Conditions applied were T = 500 °C and p(O2) = 1,2 kbar. According to an X-ray crystal structure analysis the title compound contains four crystallographically independent trigermanate [Ge3O10]8− ions per unit cell (Pc, a = 12.1549(11), b = 10.7375(14), c = 18.5169(20) Å, β = 92.326(10)°, 13448 independent reflections, R1 = 6 ,1 %, wR2 = 13,0%, Z = 8). Thermal decomposition, as recorded by DTA and temperature dependent Guinier photographs, occurs at 520 °C. Ag8Ge3O10 is diamagnetic with a molar susceptibility of -330 ·10−6 cm3 mol−1.
