    Basic principles and main recommendations from ICTACfor "isoconversional" (also known as "model free") methods and "multi-step model fitting" (also known as "model based") methods to be used worldwide are described. The objective of these recommendations is to help a non-expert with efficiently performing multi-step kinetic analysis and interpreting its results.

    The article contains main rules for kinetic modelling containing parallel, consecutive or competitive reaction steps. Two-step kinetic models are illustrated by thermogravimetric curves, created for the mixture of independent decomposing materials (independent processes), for double- step decomposition of one material (consecutive steps) and for decomposition of one material by two different ways with the mixture of two products in different concentrations (competitive reaction steps)
