Abstract
Mathematical equations are derived that relate the extent of reaction α to time for the case of a reaction starting through surface nucleation and proceeding inwards and laterally through two growth-rate constants. The model is based in Avrami's theorem, and may therefore be considered as a modified Avrami model. The relation between -In(1-α) and time involves first-order Bessel functions Y1[2ωμ(t)] and J1[2ωμ(t)], where μ(t)=exp(-kn t 2) and ω2,=σδ0k1kn-1, ω is one of the model basic parameters. The final equations may be solved analytically under certain conditions, and numerically in the more general cases.
