Thermal decomposition rate of N2O5 measured by cavity ring-down spectroscopy

The thermal decomposition rate of N2O5 in 760 Torr of air as a function of temperature between 314 and 348 K has been investigated using the technique of pulsed laser cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) detection of NO3 radicals at 662 nm. The Arrhenius expression of the thermal decomposition rates determined by the CRDS experiments, which is incorporated with literature values down to 263 K, is given by 1.36 × 1015 exp{(-11300 ± 200)/T} s-1 over the temperature range 263-348 K. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Kinetic study of 2-furanaldehyde, 3-furanaldehyde, and 5-methyl-2-furanaldehyde reactions initiated by Cl atoms

Rate coefficients for the gas-phase reactions of chlorine atoms with a series of furanaldehydes have been determined at 298 ± 2 K and atmospheric pressure (708.5 ± 0.1). The experiments were performed using the relative technique combined with solid-phase microextraction (SPME) sampling and gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID). Rate constants were determined relative to the reaction of Cl with n-nonane and 2-ethylfuran. The absolute rate coefficients k (in units of 10-10 cm3 molecule-1 s-1) obtained were 2.61 ± 0.27 for 2-furaldehyde, 3.15 ± 0.27 for 3-furaldehyde, and 4 ± 0.5 for 5-methyl-2-furaldehyde. This study shows that the reactions of furanaldehydes and Cl are very fast with little influence of the position of the aldehyde group or the presence of other substituent on the reactivity. The results seem to indicate a mechanism involving two main reaction channels, addition of chlorine atom to the double bond of the aromatic ring, and the abstraction of the aldehydic hydrogen. Further product studies are necessary to determine the mechanism of these reactions in more detail. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 40: 670-678, 2008

Cure kinetics FTIR study of epoxy/nickel-imidazole system

In the first part of this work (Omrani et al., Thermochim Acta 2008, 468, 39-48), we have reported mechanism and curing behavior of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) cured with a nickel salt of imidazole. In the present study, the isothermal cure of DGEBA-Im6NiBr2 system was investigated by in situ FTIR spectroscopy. Different amounts of nickel salt were loaded into epoxy matrix to elucidate the effects of the nickel catalyst concentration on the cure kinetics and mechanism. First-order kinetic analysis was applied to estimate the rate constants for the both steps, adduct formation and chain-growth polymerization, in the mechanism. It has been concluded that at high nickel salts concentrations, the studied cure reaction behaves like free-imidazole-epoxy cure. Analysis of the activation energy showed that the second step in the mechanism is more sensitive to the level of nickel salt than the first one. Using transition state theory, the thermodynamic functions of activated complex were also estimated. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 40: 663-669, 2008

Co-oxidation of ammonia and ethanol in supercritical water, part 2: Modeling demonstrates the importance of H2NNOx

A co-oxidation model was constructed from available submechanisms for ammonia and ethanol oxidation. The ammonia submechanism validated for combustion at atmospheric pressure conditions was modified for the higher densities and lower temperatures (655-700°C) of supercritical water. The ethanol submechanism had previously been tested and validated at supercritical water conditions. The initial model poorly reproduced experimental ammonia conversion data and was not able to consistently match nitrous oxide production as a function of temperature over a range from 655-700°C at 246 bar. To improve model predictions, the low-pressure NH2 + NOx submechanism was replaced with a submechanism that included the H2NNOx adduct species that are expected to be stabilized in the high-pressure supercritical water environment. Thermochemical and kinetic parameters for the adduct species were estimated with quantum chemical calculations using Gaussian 98 with the CBS-Q method. The explicit treatment of the H2NNOx adducts resulted in nitrous oxide yield predictions that correctly reproduced experimental trends. This work represents a vital first step in improving the understanding of ammonia oxidation in supercritical water. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 40: 653-662, 2008

Inorganic reactions of iodine(III) in acidic solutions and free energy of iodous acid formation

An analysis of the former works devoted to the reactions of I(III) in acidic nonbuffered solutions gives new thermodynamic and kinetic information. At low iodide concentrations, the rate law of the reaction IO-3 + I- + 2H+ [rlhar2] IO2H + IOH is k+B [IO-3][I-][H+]2 - k-B [IO2H][IOH] with k+B = 4.5 × 103 M-3s-1 and k-B = 240 M-1s-1 at 25°C and zero ionic strength. The rate law of the reaction IO2H + I- + H+ [rlhar2] 2IOH is k+C [IO2H][I-][H+] - k-C [IOH]2 with k+C = 1.9 × 1010 M-2s-1 and k-C = 25 M-1s-1. These values lead to a Gibbs free energy of IO2H formation of -95 kJ mol-1. The pKa of iodous acid should be about 6, leading to a Gibbs free energy of IO-2 formation of about -61 kJ mol-1. Estimations of the four rate constants at 50°C give, respectively, 1.2 × 104 M-3s-1, 590 M-1s-1, 2 × 109 M-2s-1, and 20 M-1 s-1. Mechanisms of these reactions involving the protonation IO2H + H+ [rlhar2] IO2H+2 and an explanation of the decrease of the last two rate constants when the temperature increases, are proposed. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Rate coefficients for the OH + acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) reaction between 204 and 373 K

The rate coefficient, k1, for the gas-phase reaction OH + CH3CHO (acetaldehyde) [rarr] products, was measured over the temperature range 204-373 K using pulsed laser photolytic production of OH coupled with its detection via laser-induced fluorescence. The CH3CHO concentration was measured using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV absorption at 184.9 nm and gas flow rates. The room temperature rate coefficient and Arrhenius expression obtained are k1(296 K) = (1.52 ± 0.15) × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 and k1(T) = (5.32 ± 0.55) × 10-12 exp[(315 ± 40)/T] cm3 molecule-1 s-1. The rate coefficient for the reaction OH ([nu] = 1) + CH3CHO, k7(T) (where k7 is the rate coefficient for the overall removal of OH ([nu] = 1)), was determined over the temperature range 204-296 K and is given by k7(T) = (3.5 ± 1.4) × 10-12 exp[(500 ± 90)/T], where k7(296 K) = (1.9 ± 0.6) × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1. The quoted uncertainties are 2[sigma] (95% confidence level). The preexponential term and the room temperature rate coefficient include estimated systematic errors. k7 is slightly larger than k1 over the range of temperatures included in this study. The results from this study were found to be in good agreement with previously reported values of k1(T) for temperatures <298 K. An expression for k1(T), suitable for use in atmospheric models, in the NASA/JPL and IUPAC format, was determined by combining the present results with previously reported values and was found to be k1(298 K) = 1.5 × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, f(298 K) = 1.1, E/R = 340 K, and [Delta] E/R (or g) = 20 K over the temperature range relevant to the atmosphere. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A shock tube study of cyclopentane and cyclohexane ignition at elevated pressures

Ignition delay times for cyclopentane/air and cyclohexane/air mixtures were measured in a shock tube at temperatures of 847-1379 K, pressures of 11-61 atm, and equivalence ratios of [phis] = 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25. Ignition times were determined using electronically excited OH emission monitored through the shock tube endwall and piezoelectric pressure measurements made in the shock tube sidewall. The dependence of ignition time on pressure, temperature, and equivalence ratio is quantified and correlations for ignition time formulated. Measured ignition times are compared to kinetic modeling predictions from four recently published mechanisms. The data presented provide a database for the validation of cycloalkane kinetic mechanisms at the elevated pressures found in practical combustion engines. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polybrusselator-type models

In this paper, the possibility for autocatalysis in polymerization reactions is explored by introducing part of a polymerization mechanism in a model known as Brusselator. It is assumed that monomer concentration is practically constant. Four possibilities are examined: (1) a first radical propagator X, which has an isomer of position of the free electron, Y, dimerizes reversibly and this dimer catalyzes the isomerization of Y to X; (2) the radical propagator X is a polymer with a critical degree of polymerization and has an isomer of position of the free electron Y. This critical radical propagator catalyzes the conversion of Y to X; (3) any radical propagator has an isomer of position of the free electron, Y, and any polymer obtained by recombination of the radicals can catalyze the conversion of Y into its corresponding isomer X; and (4) any radical propagator with a critical degree of polymerization can catalyze the conversion of Y into its corresponding isomer. Isomorphism equations are obtained in all mechanisms, which implies the possibility of limit cycle oscillations (Brusselator model). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 40: 617-623, 2008

Synthesis and thermal decomposition kinetics of the complexes [Sm(o-NBA)3bipy]2·2H2O and [Sm(o-BrBA)3bipy]2· 2H2O

Two new complexes [Sm(o-NBA)3bipy]2·2H2O (1) and [Sm(o-BrBA)3bipy]2·2H2O (2) (where o-NBA is o-nitrobenzoic acid, o-BrBA is o-bromobenzoic acid, and bipy is 2,2[prime]-bipyridine) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV, and molar conductance, respectively. The thermal decomposition behaviors of the two complexes were investigated by means of TG-DTG and IR techniques. The thermal decomposition kinetics was studied by using advanced double equal-double steps method, nonlinear integral isoconversional method, and nonlinear differential isoconversional method. The kinetic parameters of the second-step process for the two complexes were obtained, respectively. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 40: 607-616, 2008

Homogeneous catalysis: Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of Ru(II) sensitizers by inorganic peroxides

Abstract  The present research work involves the nature of interaction between the Ru(II) complex and inorganic peroxides in the absence of excitation by light photons. We synthesized a photosensitizer, ([Ru(dcbpy)2(biq)]Cl2·3H2O) and studied its thermal degradation in the presence of inorganic peroxides (hydrogen peroxide, peroxomonosulfate and peroxodisulfate). Progress of the thermal reaction between the Ru(II) complex and each peroxide in 0.5 M H+ solutions was followed spectrophotometrically by monitoring the disappearance of the Ru(II) complex at its maximum absorbance (λ = 514 nm). The reactivities of the peroxides were compared and suitable mechanisms proposed.

Alkylation of 2-naphthol with long-chain olefins over zeolites

Abstract  Alkylation of 2-naphthol with tripropylene in the presence of zeolite catalysts HBEA, H-Y and H-MFI was studied. Comparative studies on the catalytic properties of H-BEA, H-Y and H-MFI zeolites were carried out under identical reaction conditions. The results showed that the H-BEA catalyst exhibited outstanding catalytic performance; and the conversion and selectivity of 2-naphthol could be 52.1% and 86.3%, respectively. It was found that the structure and acid strength of zeolite catalysts were the major influencing factors for the conversion and selectivity of 2-naphthol alkylation.

Catalytic reduction of nitrogen monoxide with propene over Nb/TiO2 mixed mechanically with Mn2O3

Abstract  Selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen monoxide (NO) over a catalyst of mechanically mixed Nb/TiO2 and Mn2O3 (Mn2O3+Nb/TiO2) in an oxidizing atmosphere with propene (C3H6) was studied. The Mn2O3+Nb/TiO2 catalyst showed high activity for the reduction of NO to N2. The maximum conversion of NO to N2 was observed at 200∼300°C, with about 80% reduction of NO to N2. Mn2O3 enhanced the formation of NO2 from NO and the activation of propene to react with NO2 for reduction to N2.

Dramatic improvement of catalyst life by rhodium and cerium additives for Ni-based reforming catalysts

Abstract  Rhodium and cerium were found to be suitable additives for improving the sulfur-tolerance of Ni-based gasoline reforming catalysts. In these cases, the Rh content was only 0.1 wt.% with 5 wt.% of Ce. The lifetime of Rh-Ce-modified Ni-based catalyst is found to be above 600 hours at 1023K, which is over a ten times longer lifetime than that of the unmodified catalysts, when premium gasoline was used.

Correlation between reduction potential of vanadium-containing heteropolyacid (HPA) catalysts and their oxidation activity for cyclohexanol dehydrogenation

Abstract  Vanadium-containing H6+xP2Mo18−xVxO62 (x = 0, 1, 2 and 3) Wells-Dawson heteropolyacid (HPA) and H3+xPMo12−xVxO40 (x = 0, 1, 2 and 3) Keggin HPA catalysts were applied to the vapor-phase dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol. The catalytic oxidation activity showed a volcano-shaped curve with respect to vanadium substitution for both families of HPA catalysts. The Wells-Dawson HPA showed a better catalytic oxidation performance than the Keggin HPA at the same level of vanadium substitution.

Decolorization of C.I. Reactive Red 2 by ozonation catalyzed by Fe(II) and UV

Abstract  This work evaluated the effects of pH on decolorization of C.I. Reactive Red 2 by O3, O3/Fe(II), UV/O3 and UV/O3/Fe(II) systems. At pH 4, the decolorization rate constants of O3, O3/Fe(II), UV/O3 and UV/O3/Fe(II) systems were 1.78, 3.11, 2.04 and 3.18 hr−1, respectively. The decolorization rates and effective energy consumption constants of all systems were higher under basic conditions than under acidic conditions.

Oxidation of lean formaldehyde in air over an Au/CeO2 catalyst and its kinetics

Abstract  The oxidation of low concentration formaldehyde in air over Au/CeO2, prepared by co-precipitation, was investigated. Power-law kinetic models were proposed and the parameters were estimated, which are r = −0.46 × e −14612 / RTCHCHO(303 K < T < 363 K) and r = −295.78 × e −34178 / RT CHCHO (363 K < T < 413 K). The mechanism of the reaction at low temperatures might be different from that at high temperatures.

Catalytic properties of a (A=Ba, Ca, Sr and Y) modified lanthanum hexaaluminates for catalytic combustion of methane

Abstract  A series of hexaaluminates, La0.8A0.2MnAl11O19−δ samples (A = Ba, Ca, Sr and Y) as new catalysts were prepared by carbonate precipitation and calcined at high temperature. The structure and properties of these samples were characterized by XRD, BET and XPS techniques. Upon calcination at 1200°C, the hexaaluminate structure was formed and it retained the specific surface area of 17∼20 m2g−1. The La0.8Ca0.2MnAl11O19−δ catalyst has a surface area of 19.3 m2g−1 and shows a good activity in CH4 combustion.
