Thermal decomposition of K2O center dot CaO center dot 4B(2)O(3)center dot 12H(2)O
Thermal decomposition of K2O . CaO . 4B(2)O(3). 12H(2)O has been investigated by isothermal, non-isothermal methods. X-ray and FT-IR spectra determined the isothermal dehydrated products. The results showed that it is a multi-stage course. Structure and thermal decomposition mechanism of K2O . CaO . 4B(2)O(3). 12H(2)O were discussed.
