The paper focuses on the kinetic parameters of synthesizing Co3O4 nano-powder by thermal decomposition of hydroxide Co(OH)2 under isothermal conditions. The thermal decomposition of Co(OH)2 nano-powder under isothermal conditions was carried out in a tube furnace in the temperature range from 150 to 200 °C. Findings of research show that the thermal decomposition rate constant at 200 °C is approximately 2.7 times higher than that at 150 °C. Accordingly, for 80 min of thermal decomposition, the process accelerates 1.8 times. The activation energy of this process is approximately 33 kJ/mol, which indicates a mixed reaction mode. The study shows that Co3O4 nanoparticles obtained at the temperature of the maximum thermal decomposition rate, i.e. 180 °C, mainly consist of elongated ovoid and acicular aggregates with an average particle value of 47 nm and the length of up to 200 nm.

The thermal decomposition of wood chips from an apple tree is studied in a static air atmosphere under isothermal conditions. Based on the thermogravimetric analysis, the values of the apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factor are 34 ± 3 kJ mol−1 and 391 ± 2 min−1, respectively. These results have also shown that this process can be described by the rate of the first-order chemical reaction. This reaction model is valid only for a temperature range of 250–290 °C, mainly due to the lignin decomposition. The obtained results are used for kinetic prediction, which is compared with the measurement. The results show that the reaction is slower at higher values of degree of conversion, which is caused by the influence of the experimental condition. Nevertheless, the obtained kinetic parameters could be used for the optimization of the combustion process of wood chips in small-scale biomass boilers.

Wood has been treated with amino resins and amino resins modified with phosphoric acid to impart flame retardancy. The thermal degradation of samples has been studied by thermogravimetry (TG) in air. From the resulting data, kinetic parameters for different stages of thermal degradation are obtained following the method of Broido. For the decomposition of wood and flame retardant wood, the activation energy is found to decrease from 122 to 72 kJmol-1.

The thermal decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and of phenylmethyldiazirine in DMSO and in HOAc have been investigated over the temperature range 80–130 °C. The intermediate diazo compounds, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane and 1-phenyldiazoethane respectively have been detected and isolated. The decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and the subsequent decomposition of its product, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane, are an illustration of consecutive reactions. The kinetic parameters for the isomerization and decomposition reactions have been determined. The isomerization of phenylmethyldiazirine to 1-phenyldiazoethane is first order and probably unimolecular but the kinetics for the subsequent reactions of 1-phenyldiazoethane are complicated by several competing rate processes.
