Solid-state diffusion phenomena in heterogeneous gas-solid reactions : Application to oxides sulfidation

2018

Phase transition phenomena involving the mobility of the reaction interface are involved in a wide variety of chemical reactions and applications. A good example is the sulfidation reaction experienced by the metal oxide-based materials used in the framework of gas purification or catalysts preparation applications. These reactions involve solid-state diffusion phenomena of the reactive species (atomic or ionic form) through the layer of product formed during the reaction (oxide, sulfide, or metal phase). In many cases, solid-state diffusion has a direct impact on the reaction mechanisms while determining the growth direction of the formed phases, as well as the overall kinetics of the reac…
