Abstract
The thermal decomposition of three inclusion compounds: [Zn 2(camph)2dabco]•DMF•H2O, [Zn 2(camph)2bipy]•3DMF•H2O and [Zn 2(camph)2bpe]•5DMF•H2O was studied in the inert atmosphere. TG and DTG curves confirm multi-step decomposition process, the dehydration being the first step. Thermogravimetric data (obtained at different rates of linear heating) were processed with computer program (with 'Model-free' approach). Kinetic parameters of decomposition were calculated for the DMF multi-step removal, the processes are described by Avrami-Erofeev equations. The connection between the kinetic parameters and structural features of the host frameworks (ligand linker lengths and porous-free volumes) are discussed.
