Abstract

A simple method for kinetic analysis of solid-state processes has been developed. A criteria capable of classifying different processes is explored here with a view toward visualizing the complexity of solid-state kinetics. They provide a useful tool for the determination of the most suitable kinetic model. The method has been applied to the analysis of crystallization processes in amorphous ZrO2 and RuO2. It is found that the crystallization kinetics of as-prepared sample exhibits a complex behavior under nonisothermal conditions. This is probably due to an overlap** of the nucleation- and crystal-growth processes at the beginning of crystallization. As a consequence, the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami nucleation-growth model cannot be applied. A two-parameter autocatalytic model provides a good description of the crystallization process under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions.
