Abstract
By kinetics of decomposition of solids in both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions, the compensation effect (CE) is rather a rule.
The topic of this work is to suggest an activation mechanism which leads to the dependences similar with CE.
The solid is assimilated to a system of the harmonic oscillator with a Bose-Einstein energy distribution.
Considering an activation process due to a vibrational energy transfer from a homogeneous and isotropic field of thermic oscillators to the solid-state oscillator, the thermodynamic functions are in the relationship
where ΔH* and ΔS* are the activation functions and T is is the isokinetic temperature.
Taking into account the definitions of H and S by means of the partition function, the isokinetic temperature is assimilated with the characteristic temperature
An important consequence, a correlation between the isokinetic temperature and the spectroscopic wavenumber of the activated bond, is illustrated by a number of decomposition reactions under non-isothermal conditions.
