Conversion factor for template decomposition is calculated using two methods viz., % weight loss from the thermogravimetric analysis and changes in the intensities of the Bragg reflections 101/011 and 200/020 in the HTXRD patterns scanned at different temperatures (range 298823 K). The calculated apparent activation energy for template decomposition in air was 129 and 125 kJ mol(-1), respectively, for the two techniques TG and HTXRD, calculated using the Kissinger method. By Flynn-Wall-Ozawa approach of isoconversion, apparent activation energy for template decomposition in air was 123 and 124 U mol-1, respectively, for TG and HTXRD data. The reaction order was determined using the method of Kennedy and Clark and it is similar to 2 by both the techniques. The second order of template decomposition can be attributed to the fact that TPA+ is positioned in two different orientations inside the silicalite-1 framework. Template removal occurs with a contraction in unit cell dimensions. There is a decrease in the lattice parameters of the as-synthesized silicalite-1 sample after removal of template from the framework. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc.
