The argon gas is supplied at a flowrate of 100 ml/min and the steam is generated from superheater at 383 K. The steam is injected at flowrate of 300 μL/hour into the TGA system. The Criado and Coats-Redfern methods are used to investigate the reliability of the determined value of the activation energy, EA from the experimental data of TGA. The interaction of solid-phase components based on the mentioned experimental conditions is also studied. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Fui, B.C.L. and Yusup, S. and Shoaibi, A.A. and Kannan, P. and Srinivasakannan, C. and Sulaiman, S.A.
