The results showed that the thermal decomposition occurred in two stages. The first step was the decomposition process of Ag2O to form porous silver particles as a complex process with the participation of at least two mechanisms, and the second step corresponded to the structural change from porous particles to silver bulk crystals as a single-step process. Key words: Ag2O; advanced isoconversional method; kinetic modeling; Sestak–Berggren model interface controlled, respectively. 1 Introduction To the best of our knowledge, there is not a great deal of information in literature about the kinetics of the Silver (I) oxide is a highly thermally stable silver thermal or thermochemical decomposition of Ag2O.
