Distribution of non-linear relaxation times (DNLR) model

Model assumes:

· (1) First order kinetics:

· (2) An universal initial spectrum of independent relaxation times:

(3) Three-parameter non-linear (time dependent) relaxation times:

Procedure

· Dynamic or isothermal measuring regime.

· One measurement at a given heating rate, w⁺ or at a given temperature, T_a.

· Then model parameters (ΔH^*_DNLR, ΔS^*_DNLR, K_DNLR) could be determined by numerical non-linear curve fitting .
