Study of the dehydroxylation-rehydroxylation of pyrophyllite
(American Ceramic Society, 2010)
Pyrophyllite is a raw material of significant interest due to its large number of applications. Most of these applications require a thermal transformation of pyrophyllite; this thermal transformation implies the release ...

Large-scale high-temperature solar energy storage using natural minerals
(Elsevier, 2017)
The present work is focused on thermochemical energy storage (TCES) in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants by means of the Calcium-Looping (CaL) process using cheap, abundant and non-toxic natural carbonate minerals. CaL ...

CO2 capture performance of Ca-Mg acetates at realistic Calcium Looping conditions
(Elsevier BV, 2017)
The Calcium Looping (CaL) process, based on the cyclic carbonation/calcination of CaO, has emerged in the last years as a potentially low cost technique for CO2capture at reduced energy penalty. In the present work, natural ...

Constant rate thermal analysis for enhancing the long-term CO2 capture of CaO at Ca-looping conditions
(Elsevier, 2013)
Experimental results are reported on the (Ca-looping) multicyclic CO2 capture of CaO and nanosilica/CaO composites derived from Ca(OH)2 and nanosilica/Ca(OH)2 dry mixtures subjected in situ to linear and constant rate ...

Quantitative characterization of multicomponent polymers by sample-controlled thermal analysis
(American Chemical Society, 2010)
This paper explores the potential of sample-controlled thermal analysis (SCTA) in order to perform compositional analysis of multicomponent polymeric materials by means of thermogravimetric experiments. In SCTA experiments, ...

Nanoclay nucleation effect in the thermal stabilization of a polymer nanocomposite: A kinetic mechanism change
(American Chemical Society, 2012)
The enhanced thermal stability of polymer-clay nanocomposites over the original polymers is one of their most interesting features, and it has been profusely studied within the last decades. Here, a thorough kinetic analysis ...

Characterization of mechanosynthesized Bi1−xSmxFeO3 samples unencumbered by secondary phases or compositional inhomogeneity
(Elsevier, 2017)
High-quality samples, in terms of phase purity and dielectric properties, of composition Bi1−xSmxFeO3 (0.05 ≤ x ≤ 0.20) have for the first time been prepared by mechanosynthesis. Close inspection of the powder diffraction ...

Pyrolysis kinetics of ethylene-propylene (EPM) and ethylene-propylene-diene (EPDM)
(Elsevier, 2013)
The thermal degradation kinetics of several ethylene-propylene copolymers (EPM) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymers (EPDM), with different chemical compositions, have been studied by means of the combined kinetic ...

New insights on the kinetic analysis of isothermal data: The independence of the activation energy from the assumed kinetic model
(American Chemical Society, 2015)
Isothermal experiments are widely employed to study the kinetics of solid-state reactions or processes to extract essential kinetic information needed for modeling the processes at an industrial scale. The kinetic analysis ...

Effect of dolomite decomposition under CO2 on its multicycle CO2 capture behaviour under calcium looping conditions
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
One of the major drawbacks that hinder the industrial competitiveness of the calcium looping (CaL) process for CO capture is the high temperature (∼930-950 °C) needed in practice to attain full calcination of limestone in ...
