A kinetic study on the thermal decomposition of 3-nitro and 4-nitro-benzaldehyde-2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones was carried out. The isothermal and dynamic differential scanning calorimetric curves were recorded for solids and melts, respectively. The standard isoconversional analysis of the obtained curves from both isothermal and nonisothermal analysis suggests an autocatalytic decomposition mechanism. This mechanism is also supported by the temperature dependence of the observed induction periods. Based on the results of the model-free method from nonisothermal regime, the kinetic model was derived and the kinetic parameters were obtained by means of a multivariate nonlinear regression.
