Kinetische untersuchungen zur strahleninduzierten festkörperpolymerisation von trioxan und tetroxan IV. Mitt. der Reihe “kinetische und morphologisch…

1971

Die strahlungsinduzierte Polymerisation von kristallinem Tetroxan und Trioxan wurde untersucht und der Einflus von Strahlendosis, Reaktionszeit und -temperatur auf den Umsatz und das Molekulargewicht der entstehenden POM, insbesondere bei der Nachpolymerisation, studiert. Die Zeit-Umsatz-Kurven fur die Nachpolymerisation laufen bei beiden Monomeren asymptotisch gegen einem Grenzwert des Umsatzes, der mit steigender Reaktionstemperatur ansteigt. Die Aktivierungsenergie der Nachpolymerisation wurde zu 24 ± 2 kcal/Mol fur Tetroxan und zu 36–38 kcal/Mol fur Trioxan bestimmt. Die Zeit(t)-Umsatz(x)-Kurven fur Tetroxan lassen sich durch die empirische Gleichung: beschreiben, wobei k1 und k2 Konsta…

Ascorbic acid degradation kinetics in mushrooms in a high-temperature short-time process controlled by a thermoresistometer

2004

Abstract The degradation of ascorbic acid was studied in mushrooms heated at temperatures between 110 and 140°C, high-temperature short-time conditions, in a five-channel computer-controlled thermoresistometer. The kinetics parameters were calculated on the assumption that there are 2 degradation mechanisms, one aerobic (during the first few seconds of the process) and the other anaerobic. The 2 stages followed first-order reaction kinetics, with E a =46.36 kJ/mol for aerobic degradation and E a =49.57 kJ/mol for anaerobic degradation.

High accuracy [sup 18]O(p,α)[sup 15]N reaction rate in the 8⋅10[sup 6]–5⋅10[sup 9] K temperature range

2011

The 18O(p,α)15N reaction is of great importance in several astrophysical scenarios, as it influences the production of key isotopes such as 19F, 18O and 15N. In this work, a high accuracy 18O(p,α)15N reaction rate is proposed, based on the simultaneous fit of direct measurements and of the results of a new Trojan Horse experiment. In particular, we have focused on the study of the broad 660 keV 1/2+ resonance. Since Γ∼100–300 keV, it strongly influences the nearly‐zero‐energy region of the cross section by means of the low‐energy tail of the resonant contribution and dominates the cross section at higher energies. Here we provide a factor of 2 larger reaction rate above T∼0.5 109 K based ov…

Vergleichende reaktionskinetische Untersuchungen mit standardisiertem menschlichen Renin an vier angereicherten tierischen Reninsubstraten

1970

Zur Charakterisierung der Angiotensinbildung aus vier angereicherten tierischen Reninsubstraten (Rind, Schwein, Hund und Ratte) mit menschlichem Renin wurde das Temperatur- und pH-Verhalten untersucht, sowie die Michaelis-Menten-Konstanten und maximalen Reaktionsgeschwindigkeiten bestimmt.

Die thermische polymerisation von methylmethacrylat, 2. Bildung des ungesättigten dimeren

1980

The spontaneous thermal polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) is accompanied by the production of serveral oligomers among which a linear unsaturated dimer H-1 (dimethyl 1-hexene-2,5-dicarboxylate) is predominant. The reaction kinetics of this dimer formation was investigated in bulk and in solution. The temperature dependence of the second order dimerization constant was determined as Reaction mechanisms for the thermal dimer formation of MMA are discussed.

Data Treatment in Kinetics

2000

Chemical kinetics is an important part of chemistry devoted to study how reactions proceed and quantify the rate of the process. The reaction mechanism is the chemical model that describes how the chemical change occurs. From the proposed mechanism, a mathematical model can be obtained to explain the evolution of the chemical species with time. In many cases, the mechanism can be simplified to a single rate law that relates the reaction rate with concentrations. In the last decades, the study of kinetic systems has benefited from the development of instrumentation, the increasing availability of specialized computer software, and the advances in data treatment techniques. A comprehensive re…

Study of solid state kinetics using voltammetry of immobilized particles. Application to tetragonal to monoclinic transition in nanoparticulate zirco…

2012

Abstract The voltammetry of immobilized particles methodology is applied to study solid state reaction kinetics on the basis of the electrocatalytic ability of solids toward selected electrochemical processes. Measurement of the time variation of catalytic current for oxygen evolution reaction in aqueous alkaline media provides a direct estimate of fractional conversion of the reactant in the course of the reaction for testing different reaction kinetic models. This methodology is applied to analyze the formation of monoclinic zirconia and praseodymia-doped zirconia from tetragonal precursors. Discrimination between competing and successive reactions mechanisms is obtained for reactions inv…

The influence of water and of alkali promotor on the carbon number distribution of fischer-tropsch products formed over iron catalysts

1987

The carbon number distribution of Fischer-Tropsch products formed over an alkalized precipitated iron catalyst has been studied as a function of the water vapor pressure of the synthesis gas. The carbon number distribution of formed hydrocarbons is characterized by a bimodal Schulz-Flory distribution of growth probabilities P1 ≈ 0.6 and P2 ≈ 0.87 attributed to unpromoted and promoted (alkalized) sites on the catalyst surface. Promoted sites are more stable with respect to oxidation (deactivation) by water than unpromoted sites. The growth probability of unpromoted sites decreases with increasing ratio P/P — Studies using Mossbauer spectroscopy have shown that iron foils treated with water c…

Chaotic dynamics in an unstirred ferroin catalyzed Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction

2009

Abstract The Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is the best known example of far from equilibrium self-organizing chemical reaction. Among the many dynamical behaviors that this reaction can exhibit, spatio-temporal chaos attracted particular interest, both for the ferroin and cerium catalyzed systems. In recent years transient chaos was found in the cerium catalyzed BZ reaction, when conducted in batch and unstirred reactors. It was established that the chaotic oscillations, originated by the coupling among chemical kinetics and transport phenomena, appeared and disappeared following a Ruelle–Takens–Newhouse scenario. In this Letter, we show results about the ferroin catalyzed system condu…
