ABSTRACT

Some new Schiff bases have been synthesized from 4- amino benzoic acid and their thermal analysis have been carried out by TG technique. TG data of decomposition have been analysed for the kinetic parameters using Freeman-Carroll method. From the observed curves, various kinetic parameters such as order of degradation (n), energy of activation (E), frequency factor (A) and entropy change (∆S) have been evaluated. Further, thermal stability of Schiff bases have been determined, which is found to depend on the type of substituent present in the compounds.
