Abstract
The thermal decomposition process of LiHC2O4·H2O from 30 to 600 °C was investigated by the thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC). The phases decomposited at different temperature were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), which indicated the decompositions at 150, 170, and 420 °C, relating to LiHC2O4, Li2C2O4, Li2C2O4, and Li2CO3, respectively. Reaction mechanisms in the whole sintering process were determined, and the model fitting kinetic approaches were applied to data for non-isothermal thermal decomposition of LiHC2O4·H2O; finally, the kinetic parameters of each reaction were also calculated herein.
