(a) The DSC profile of BKNO3. The first exothermic reaction is the decomposition of laminac (red circle) (b) Reaction progress vs. temperature and (c) reaction rate vs. temperature compared for various heating rates (1, 2, 4, and 8 °C/min). (d) Long-period reaction progress vs. time at various storage temperatures. Although the storage temperature is high (120 °C), the initiation of reaction (the decomposition of laminac) takes an infinite time.
