Nonlinear frequency response analysis: a recent review and perspectives

The nonlinear frequency response analysis (NFRA) can be seen as an extension of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. NFRA gives a full and detailed representation of the system response and can establish a connection between model parameters and the experimentally observed phenomena. In this article, different theoretical NFRA approaches and the most recent application examples are discussed. A simple electrochemical example is used to showcase the benefits and disadvantages of analyzing the system response by using different approaches. In addition, it was shown how to extract experimental harmonic values and analyze them.     

Kinetics of phenol hydrogenation over supported palladium catalyst

Kinetics of vapor phase hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone over Pd/MgO system has been studied in a flow microreactor under normal atmospheric pressure. The reaction rate is found to be negative order with respect to the partial pressure of phenol and has increased from −0.5 to 0.5 with increasing temperature (473 to 563 K). The apparent activation energy (E_a) of the process is found to be close to 65 kJ per mol. On the basis of kinetic results a surface mechanism is proposed.     

Physico-chemical aspects of polyethylene processing in an open mixer. Part 26: Formal kinetics of aldehyde and carboxylic acid formation at a constant rate

Formation of carboxylic acids at a constant rate can be easily explained. It seems to result from the formation and decomposition of α,γ-keto-hydroperoxides. Formal kinetics based on formation and decomposition of these structural units is in agreement with the experimental findings. The activation energy deduced from the calculations is negligible, in agreement with the experimental data showing the constant rate to be practically temperature independent. Comparison of the acids with the hydroperoxides and ketones formed initially shows that the rate of oxygen addition to alkyl radicals is significantly smaller than in low molecular mass liquids. The same conclusion is reached on comparing directly the acids formed on decomposition of α,γ-keto-hydroperoxides in polyethylene melt and in hexadecane. The rate of oxygen addition in polyethylene melt is closer to 2 × 10⁵ than to 6 × 10⁵ (s⁻¹) that is valid in hexadecane.It is possible to attribute the relatively small amount of aldehydes that might be formed at a constant rate to different reactions of alkoxy radicals that are not in a cage with other radicals. These alkoxy radicals result from the addition of peroxy radicals to unsaturated bonds. This addition is followed mainly by epoxide formation and simultaneous release of an alkoxy radical.

Physico-chemical aspects of polyethylene processing in an open mixer. Part 29: Experimental kinetics and mechanisms of γ-lactone formation

The experimental kinetics for γ-lactone formation shows more complexity than that for acids. Nonetheless, it can be concluded to the existence of a constant rate of formation from the beginning of the experiments with polyethylene melts. There is an additional term contributing to γ-lactone formation in the initial stages that is cubic in processing time. In the advanced stages of processing, in the high temperature range (170-200 °C), the concentration of γ-lactones increases linearly with the processing time.There are many mechanisms susceptible to give γ-lactones on polyethylene melt processing. Some of them are based on decomposition of intermediates formed directly on chain propagation. This is so for the α,γ-keto-hydroperoxides in 4-position to hydroxyl groups. Since decomposition of these intermediates is very fast, the reaction might account for a constant rate of γ-lactone formation from the beginning of polyethylene processing. Decomposition of the α,δ-keto-hydroperoxides formed on intramolecular reactions on chain propagation is not so fast as that of the α,γ-keto-hydroperoxides. Nonetheless, it might account for part of the delayed formation of γ-lactones. The same is valid for the mechanisms based on peroxidation of aldehydes and γ-hydroxy trans-vinylene groups that involve intermediates that are formed on polyethylene peroxidation. They might be important for explaining the cubic term as well as γ-lactone formation in the advanced stages of polyethylene processing.

Reactivity of polyesters in glycolysis reactions: Unexpected effect of the chemical structure of the polyester glycolic unit

Kinetic studies of PET glycolysis by diethylene glycol (DEG), dipropylene glycol (DPG), glycerol (Gly) and mixtures of these glycols have shown, in a previous study, that the order of reactivity of the glycols differs according to the conditions of temperature and catalysis. Indeed, their global reactivity depends both on their chemical reactivity and physico-chemical properties.Glycolysis of model polyesters which are liquid at the reaction temperature, which allows us to overcome the problem of the polyesters' solubility, were studied to compare the chemical reactivity of these glycols. Three oligoesters were synthesized from dimethyl terephthalate and three different glycols namely triethylene glycol, ethylene glycol and hexanediol to form, respectively, PE₃T, OET and PTHD.Results showed that the order of reactivity of the glycols is the same for PET, OET and PTHD but different for PE₃T. Indeed, DPG without catalyst has a particular and unexpected behaviour: its reactivity seems to be strongly influenced by the presence of oxygen atoms in the chain.
