The z (  ʱ ) master plots are derived by combining the differential and integral
forms of the reaction models. The temperature integral in Eq. 2.8 can be replaced
with one of the multiple approximations [ 17 ], π (  x ), as follows:

where x = E / RT . Combining Eqs. 2.35 and 2.2 and performing some rearrangements
allow one to arrive at the z (  ʱ ) function as follows:

The last term in the brackets of Eq. 2.36 can be neglected [ 70 ] as it does not practi-
cally affect the shape of the z (  ʱ ) plot. Therefore, the z (  ʱ ) values can be calculated
