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.

In order to analyze the characteristics of secondary ignition of AP/HTPB base bleed propellant, the quenched samples of AP/HTPB base bleed propellant are made under the condition of transient depressurization, and experiments on thermal decomposition of this micro sample are carried by means of differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The experimental results are obtained under two heating rates of 20°C/min and 40°C/min. They are analyzed and compared with the original sample of AP/HTPB. The kinetic parameters are estimated according to thermal decomposition rate equation and thermograms.

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.
