Abstract

The kinetic behavior of Fe(OH)3 and AI(OH)3 powders during thermal dehydration is investigated. It has been shown that the dehydration rate is governed by the value of fractal dimension of the sample without any respect to the nature of metal atom in hydroxide. The quantitative model for dehydration of fractal particles with particular value of fractal dimension is suggested. Theoretical predictions are in a good agreement with experimental data.
