Calorimetry for thermokinetic determinations

The possibilities of using direct calorimetric measurements for the determination of kinetic parameters of processes are discussed in terms of the choice of an appropriate method of reproduction of the course of changes in the heat power generated in time, i.e. thermokinetics. Such methods are presented and it is concluded that many of these methods permit reproduction of the thermokinetics in the same way as if the experimental thermal curve were obtained in a calorimetric system characterized by a time constant 100–200 times as large as that for the thermal inertia of this calorimetric system.

Zusammenfassung Die Möglichkeiten zur Benutzung direkter kalorimetrischer Messungen zur Bestimmung kinetischer Parameter von Prozessen werden hinsichtlich der Wahl geeigneter Methoden zur Reproduzierung des Verlaufs der Änderungen der Wärmekraft mit der Zeit, d.h. zur Reproduzierung der Thermokinetik diskutiert. Solche Methoden werden angeführt und es wird die Schlussfolgerung gezogen, dass viele dieser Methoden die Reproduzierung der Thermokinetik auf gleiche Weise wie in den Fällen erlauben, in denen die thermische Kurve mit einem kalorimetrischen System erhalten wird, dessen Zeitkonstante um 100–200mal grösser als die des diskutierten Systems ist.

Effect of water on hydrogen desorption from the surface of Rh/C catalysts

An increase in the number of titration cycles results in a considerable decrease in H_T and O_T values, which in turn, brings about a decrease in the amount of desorbed hydrogen. This shows that water, being a product of titration reaction, is adsorbed on the oxidized surface of rhodium and represents a kinetic-diffusive barrier for hydrogen titration.

Usefulness of kinetic parameters in investigations of thermal decompositions of solids

The theoretical curves in the coordinates a vs. time for isothermal, and avs. temperature for non-isothermal experiments are calculated as functions of three kinetic parameters: activation energyE, pre-exponentical factorA and theg() function describing the mechanism of thermal decomposition of solids. The results show that conclusions not taking into consideration all three parameters can lead to information of little value concerning the mechanism of the decomposition and kinetic calculations. A correlation between non-isothermal and isothermal experiments, important for determination of the thermal stabilities of the compounds, is impossible without a knowledge of theg() function.

Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Schlussfolgerungen, die nicht alle drei Parameter berücksichtigen, zu, Ergebnissen von geringer Aussagekraft bezüglich des Zersetzungsmechanismus und der kinetischen Interpretation führen. Eine Korrelation nicht-isothermer und isothermer Experimente, die für die Bestimmung der thermischen Stabilität der Verbindungen wichtig ist, ist ohne Kenntnis der Funktiong() unmöglich.

Synergetic effects in combined catalytic oxidation-epoxidation of cyclohexene

Catalytic properties of a mechanical mixture of SiO₂-iminodiacetatechromium(III)+V₂O₅/SiO₂ have been studied. A synergetic effect in the combined catalytic oxidation-epoxidation of cyclohexene, observed at about 40 wt.% V₂O₅, is due to the autocatalytic character of the combined process.

Crystallite size effect of Pd/charcoal catalysts for benzene hydrogenation

The dispersity, calculated from the particle size distribution functions obtained by Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) measurements, when related to the chemical behavior of Pd/charcoal catalysts in benzene hydrogenation, points out that this reaction is mildly structure-sensitive below the range of 40 Å, whereas no dependence on particle size is observed above this limit.

Kinetics of oxidation of acrolein on a vanadium-molybdenum oxide catalyst

A kinetic study has shown that, in the range of low conversions, the reaction rate depends only on the partial pressure of oxygen. Comparison of the oxidation of acrolein and I-deuteroacrolein suggests that the splitting of the H–CO bond is not rate-limiting.

Changes in the acid-strength distribution and the catalytic selectivity of H,Na?MOR

Acidities of synthetic H,Na–MOR samples decationized to different degrees have been characterized by differential adsorption heat distribution of ammonia. A fairly good correlation has been found between the number of acid sites of different strengths and the catalytic activity as well as the selectivity for xylene isomerization and disproportionation. The results are correlated with the mechanism of these reactions.

Décomposition thermique du sulfite de fer(II) anhydre

Résumé Sous azote ou sous vide, le sulfite ferreux anhydre se décompose vers 210° en magnétite, pyrite et dioxyde de soufre. Concurremment une réaction de dismutation intervient avec formation de FeSO₄, Fe₃O₄ et FeS₂. Lorsque la température atteint 320°, la pyrite et le sulfate réagissent ensemble pour donner Fe_1–xS, Fe₃O₄ et SO₂. Au-delà de 370° le sulfure ferreux non-stchiométrique commence à réagir à son tour avec le sulfate restant pour former de la magnetite et du dioxyde de soufre.

In nitrogen or under vacuum, anhydrous iron(II) sulfite decomposes near 210° to magnetite, pyrite and sulfur dioxide. A parallel disproportionation reaction occurs with formation of FeSO₄, Fe₃O₄ and FeS₂. When the temperature reaches 320°, pyrite and sulfate react together to give Fe_1–xS, Fe₃O₄ and SO₂. Above 370° the non-stoichiometric ferrous sulfide begins to react with the remaining sulfate to give magnetite and sulfur dioxide.

Cyclohexene skeletal isomerization activity of sepiolites modified with B3+ or Al3+ ions

The effect of sepiolite modification by B³⁺ and Al³⁺ ions on catalytic performance were investigated in cyclohexene skeletal isomerization (CSI) reaction. Catalytic activity to 1- and 3-methylcyclopentenes (1- and 3-MCP) fit the Bassett-Habgood kinetic model for first order processes. These ions induced strong acidity in the sepiolite and the best results (greater activity and selectivity to 1-MCP) were found when the sepiolite was exchanged with an BF₃/methanol solution which contained 3 wt.% of the B³⁺ ion.

Thermal characterization of bismaleimide blends

4,4-bismaleimidophenyl methane (BM) and 3,3-bismaleimidophenyl sulfone (BS) were blended in solution using weight ratios 31 (MS31), 21 (MS21), 11 (MS11), 12 (MS12) and 13 (MS13). Chain extended bismaleimide resins were also prepared by treating BS/BM with 4,4-diaminodiphenyl ether in molar ratios of 10.3 (BM-E and BS-E resins). These resins were also blended with bismaleimides and the curing characteristics were evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry. Increase in BM content in BMBS blends or increase in chain extended bismaleimide content in BM-EBS or BS-E BM blends resulted in a reduction of melting and curing temperatures. Indication about the extent of cross-linking was obtained from solubility measurements (in DMF) of isothermally cured resins (180 °C, lh and 220 °C, lh in an air oven). Thermogravimetric analysis of samples isothermally cured at 180 °C and 220 °C (lh each) was carried out in nitrogen atmosphere. Improvement in thermal stability of chain extended bismaleimides was observed on blending.

Zusammenfassung 4,4-Bismalimidophenyl-methan (BM) und 3,3-Bismalimidophenyl-sulfon (BS) wurden in Lösung in den Gewichtsverhältnissen 31 (MS31), 21 (MS21), 11 (MS11), 12 (MS12) und 13 (MS13) gemischt. Auch kettenpolymerisierten Bismalimid-Harze wurden durch Behandlung von BS/BM mit Diaminodiphenylether im Molverhältnis 10,3 dargestellt (BM-E- und BS-E-Harze). Die Kennwerte der Aushärtung von Mischungen dieser Harze mit den Bismalimiden wurden mittels DSC ermittelt. Eine Erhöhung des BM-Gehaltes in den BM BS-Mischungen oder des Gehaltes der BM-E BS oder BS-E-Mischungen an kettenpolymerisierten Bismalimiden führt zu einer Erniedrigung der Schmelz- und Aushärtetemperaturen. Hinweise über den Vernetzungsgrad wurden aus Löslichkeitsmessungen (in DMF) von Isotherm (je 1 Stunde bei 180 und 220 °C in Luft) gehärteten Harzen erhalten. Die thermogravimetrische Analyse der Isotherm bei 180 bzw. 220 °C 1 Stunde ausgehärteten Proben wurde in Stickstoffatmosphäre ausgeführt. Die thermische Stabilität der Bismalimide wird durch Verschneiden verbessert.

Crystallization of iron phosphate glasses

Differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy were employed in the investigation of crystalline products of FeO_x-P₂O₅ glasses generated by various heat treatments. In glasses with a high value of =Fe²⁺/(Fe²⁺ + Fe³⁺), absorption of oxygen occurs in a broad temperature range identified by TG. Depending on the value of , two exotherms appear in the DTA curves, the low-temperature one corresponding to crystallization of the Fe₃(PO₄)₂ type regions, and the high-temperature one being related to various phases with dominating FePO₄. Each exotherm has its own transformation region, identical in absolute value. The Mössbauer spectra of glasses which underwent thermal treatment at higher temperatures exhibit some indication of phases of the types Fe₃(PO₄)₂ · xH₂O and FePO₄ · xH₂O.

Numerical solution of direct kinetic problems

An algorithm is proposed to construct the righthand sides and the Jacobian matrix for a set of differential equations and a heat balance equation in terms of a given kinetic mechanism of a chemical reaction in a non-isothermal, constant-volume reactor. Its application is illustrated by the calculation of the dependence of the carbon monoxide explosion limit on the concentration of hydrogen added.
