Thermal decomposition of anhydrous and moisture exposed LiPF6 solids were studied using thermogravimetry (TG). The effects of experimental conditions such as sample mass and inert gas atmosphere on decomposition kinetics were investigated. It was found that an experimental sample mass range of 5-10 mg provided a reasonably constant activation energy value of approximately 116.0 kJ mol(-1) for the decomposition of anhydrous LiPF6. The use of larger sample masses for the thermal decomposition study on TG resulted in lower activation energies and pre-exponential factors compared to smaller sample masses. This anomaly can be ascribed to inefficiencies in heat and mass transfer processes. Moisture exposed LiPF6 has an apparent activation energy value (123.7 kJ mol(-1)) that is higher than that of the anhydrous salt and this is thought to be associated with the partial formation of a LiPF6 center dot HF adduct on the solid surface resulting from the absence of an efficient sweeping gas to remove decomposition by-products. The spontaneous decomposition rate constant of anhydrous LiPF6 at 298.15 K has been determined to be 4.2 x 10(-5) s(-1). (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
