Results obtained indicate that a phase transformation occurs prior to the decomposition reaction. Decomposition takes place exothermally in two stages, first stage of decomposition could be suppressed by the controlled heating programme. Addition of a small amount of born lowered the temperature of the exotherm and increased the overall enthalpy of reactions.
