The kinetic triplet (f(a), A and E) of sodium perborate tetrahydrate was found by model fitting method defined with a single step reaction, which has an excellent fit for nonisothermal data and obeys different kinetic models and yields highly uncertain values of Arrhenius parameters. The isothermal and nonisothermal data for thermal decomposition of sodium perborate tetrahydrate to sodium perborate monohydrate and sodium metaborate were evaluated by model-free isoconversional method. The complex nature of multi-step process of sodium perborate tetrahydrate to sodium metaborate was more easily indicated by using wide temperature range in nonisothermal isoconversional method.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSodium Perborate TetrahydrateThermal DecompositionCoats-redfern MethodIsothermal KineticsNon-isotehermal KineticsArticle281020022008Q3WOS:000295361000006Q22-s2.0-8005334748710.1007/s11814-011-0081-x
