• The thermal properties of a number of Schiff base metal complexes in nitrogen atmosphere have been investigated by thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermogravimetry (DTG). The kinetic analyses of the thermal decomposition were studied using the Coats-Redfern and Horowitz-Metzger equations. The obtained kinetic parameters show the kinetic compensation effect.
