Spatio-temporal perturbation of the dynamics of the ferroin catalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction in a batch reactor caused by sodium dodecyl sulfa…

The effects of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the spatio-temporal and temporal dynamics of the ferroin-catalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction have been studied over a wide surfactant concentration range. For the first time, investigations were performed also for unstirred systems. The presence of SDS in the reaction mixture influences the oscillatory parameters to an extent that significantly depends on the surfactant concentration. The trend of the wave speed v upon the increasing amount of SDS was found to have a maximum at [SDS] = 0.075 mol dm (-3) ( v = 0.071 mm s (-1)), after which the speed decreased to 0.043 mm s (-1) at [SDS] = 0.5 mol dm (-3), which is…
