The kinetics of dehydroxylation of synthetic aluminous goethite was studied using isothermal and non-isothermal thermogravimetry. The complete isothermal dehydroxylation can be described by the Johnson-Mehl equation with up to three linear regions in plots of lnln [1/(1 - y)] vs. Int. Kinetics for the initial stage of dehydroxylation changed from diffusion to first-order through the temperature range 190 to 260°C. The rate of dehydroxylation was reduced by Al-substitution and increased with temperature. Activation energy for dehydroxylation, calculated from the time to achieve a given dehydroxylation extent, varied depending on the extent of dehydroxylation and Al-substitution. Non-stoichiometric OH existed in goethite and some remained in hematite after the complete crystallographic transition. © 1996 Akadémiai Kiadó.
