分解反应自催化性质快速鉴别的实验方法

许多物质的分解都具有自催化特性,常用的自催化鉴别方法是利用差示扫描量热仪（DSC）、微量量热仪（C80）等进行等温实验判定（简称“等温法”）. 但等温法的温度选择较为困难,因此很有必要从实验角度找到一种简便有效的自催化鉴定方法. 本文基于Roduit理论模拟的结果,从实验角度提出了分解反应自催化特性的判定方法（简称“中断回扫法”）,并利用该法以及等温法对4种样品（硝酸异辛酯（EHN）、2,4-二硝基甲苯（2,4-DNT）、过氧化二异丙苯（DCP）以及过氧化氢异丙苯（CHP））的分解特性进行判定. 结果表明：EHN以及DCP的分解符合n级分解规律,而2,4-DNT以及CHP的分解符合自催化分解规律;中断回扫法可以快速、有效地用于鉴别物质分解是否具有自催化特性.

EPR 法研究对氯四苯基锰卟啉对异丙苯过氧化氢的催化分解作用

 以 5,5-二甲基-1-吡咯啉-N-氧化物 (DMPO) 为自旋捕捉剂, 采用电子顺磁共振波谱 (EPR) 法研究了对氯四苯基锰卟啉 (T(p-Cl)PPMnⅢCl) 催化分解异丙苯过氧化氢 (CHP) 的反应过程. 结果表明, 在 25 oC 下的初始反应阶段, 在 T(p-Cl)PPMnⅢCl 与 CHP 的反应体系中仅检测到有异丙苯氧自由基的 DMPO 自旋加合物. 随着 CHP 浓度的增大, 还检测到有异丙苯过氧自由基自旋加合物的重排产物信号. 这说明在 T(p-Cl)PPMnⅢCl 的催化作用下, 初始阶段 CHP 是以 O–O 键均裂的方式产生异丙苯氧自由基引发分解反应, 并主要生成 2-苯基-2-丙醇. 在较大的初始 CHP 浓度下, 异丙苯氧自由基进一步与 CHP 反应, 产生异丙苯过氧自由基. 提出了 CHP 分解反应的主要自由基历程.

两种量热模式下物质热分解的动力学补偿效应

热分析量热仪主要包括动态、等温、恒温及绝热四种操作模式。很多学者基于动态及等温模式的测试结果,采用Arrhenius速率常数进行动力学计算,进而发现了所谓的“动力学补偿效应”。为了解绝热模式下是否也存在动力学补偿效应,分别采用绝热加速量热法(ARC)及动态差示扫描量热法(DSC)研究了过氧化二异丙苯(DCP)、40%(质量分数,下同)DCP溶液、葡萄糖、45%葡萄糖溶液的热分解特性,在此基础上基于Arrhenius公式计算了对应的表观活化能E和指前因子A,并对计算结果进行了分析。结果表明:绝热模式下,不同质量的同种样品及其溶液的最佳动力学参数,或者同一组数据采用不同的反应级数获得的lnA和E之间均存在明显的线性关系。此外,尽管由动态DSC数据计算获得的E和lnA普遍小于绝热模式的结果,但两种模式下获得的lnA和E之间仍然存在动力学补偿效应。由此可以推断,具有相同或类似反应机理的反应,虽然实验模式不同,但其E和lnA之间存在明显的动力学补偿效应。

苯胺溶剂中偶氮二异丁腈热分解特性及动力学

偶氮二异丁腈(AIBN)是一种典型的相变吸热与分解放热重叠的物质, 该重叠现象的存在不利于其动力学规律的研究. 为了正确解析AIBN相变吸热对其分解放热的影响, 并研究AIBN在溶剂中的非等温热行为, 利用差示扫描量热仪(DSC)对苯胺、AIBN及AIBN-苯胺溶液(22.18%(w))进行动态扫描, 得到不同升温速率下AIBN在苯胺溶剂中起始分解温度T_onset的范围为79.90-94.47 ℃, 比放热量较固态AIBN高291 J·g^-1左右, 该数值可以视为其比相变热. 基于Kissinger法计算的AIBN与AIBN-苯胺溶液的活化能E和指前因子A的结果相差不大. 采用Friedman法对AIBN与AIBN-苯胺溶液的热分解过程进行计算, 发现固态AIBN相变吸热对其分解放热的影响主要发生在反应进度α小于0.20的范围内, 当α大于0.20后, 两者活化能E(α)和ln(A(α)·f(α))随α的变化趋势基本一致. 分析认为, 相对于AIBN的分解反应而言, 苯胺可以视为一种惰性溶剂, 即其不会干扰AIBN的分解机理. AIBN在苯胺溶剂中的分解机理可以视为固态AIBN的分解机理. 结合Friedman法的计算结果, 采用一般积分法, 即Coats-Redfern法得到AIBN在苯胺溶剂中分解反应的机理函数为G(α)=α^3/2, 符合Mampel power法则,平均表观活化能为139.93 kJ·mol^-1.     

Utilization of microcalorimetry for an assessment of the potential for a runaway decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide at low temperatures

The exothermic decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) in cumene liquid was characterized by isothermal microcalorimetry, involving the thermal activity monitor (TAM). Unlike the exothermic behaviors previously determined from an adiabatic calorimeter, such as the vent sizing package 2 (VSP2), or differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal curves revealed that CHP undergoes an autocatalytic decomposition detectable between 75 and 90°C. Previous studies have shown that the CHP in a temperature range higher than 100°C conformed to an n ^th order reaction rate model. CHP heat of decomposition and autocatalytic kinetics behavior were measured and compared with previous reports, and the methodology and the advantages of using the TAM to obtain an autocatalytic model by curve fitting are reported. With various autocatalytic models, such as the Prout-Tompkins equation and the Avrami-Erofeev rate law, the best curve fit among models was also investigated and proposed.     

Kinetics and thermodynamics of thermal decomposition of synthetic AlPO<Subscript>4</Subscript>·2H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O

Cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) and its derivatives have caused many serious explosions and fires in Taiwan as a consequence of thermal instability, chemical contamination, and even mechanical shock. It has been employed in polymerization for producing phenol and dicumyl peroxide (DCPO). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to analyze the thermal hazard of CHP in the presence of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), and sodium bisulfite (Na₂SO₃). Thermokinetic parameters for decomposition, such as exothermic onset temperature (T ₀ ), maximum temperature (T _max ), and enthalpy (ΔH), were obtained from the thermal curves. Isothermal microcalorimetry (thermal activity monitor, TAM) was employed to investigate the thermal hazards during CHP storage and CHP mixed with NaOH, H₂SO₄, and Na₂SO₃ under isothermal conditions in a reactor or container. Tests by TAM indicated that from 70 to 90 °C an autocatalytic reaction was apparent in the thermal curves. According to the results from the TAM test, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was, in turn, adopted to analyze the result of concentration versus time. By the Arrhenius equation, the activation energy (E _a ) and rate constant (k) were calculated. Depending on the process conditions, NaOH was one of the incompatible chemicals or catalysts for CHP. When CHP is mixed with NaOH, the T ₀ is induced earlier and the reactions become more complex than for pure CHP, and the E _a is lower than for pure CHP.     

Detection of organic gunshot residues from human hands using direct sample analysis-time of flight-mass spectrometry

The organic gunshot residues (OGSRs), specifically methyl centralite (MC; 1,3-dimethyl-1,3-diphenylurea), ethyl centralite (EC; 1,3-diethyl-1,3-diphenylurea), 2,4-DNT (2,4-dinitrotoluene), and TNT (trinitrotoluene), are characteristic compounds for which forensic analysts test determining if a person has discharged a firearm. A set of 200 samples from 50 shooters were collected as part of the validation study. Pistol 9 mm and special revolver .38 were fired at indoor and outdoor shooting ranges. The development of a methodology based on direct analysis of samples-time of flight-mass spectrometry (DSA-TOF-MS) made it possible to identify the main components of organic shot residues, which gave the possibility to introduce a new method of analysis of shot residues in the Chilean supply area. The DSA-TOF-MS provided extensive information on the composition of the shot residues: MC, EC, 2,4-DNT, and TNT. Samples taken from the trigger hands required minimal sample preparation that reduced analyses time. With the implementation of new alternative analytical methodologies, a great step would be taken in the analysis of OGSRs, because now there is no such technique for its analysis in Chile, and the results would also complement the existing inorganic elemental analyses generated during a gunshot.     

Thermal hazards evaluation of cumene hydroperoxide mixed with its derivatives

Over 90% of the cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) produced in the world is applied in the production of phenol and acetone. The additional applications were used as a catalyst, a curing agent, and as an initiator for polymerization. Many previous studies from open literature have verified and employed various aspects of the thermal decomposition and thermokinetics of CHP reactions. An isothermal microcalorimeter (thermal activity monitor III, TAM III), and a thermal dynamic calorimetry (differential scanning calorimetry, DSC) were used to resolve the exothermic behaviors, such as exothermic onset temperature (T ₀), heat power, heat of decomposition (ΔH _d), self-heating rate, peak temperature of reaction system, time to maximum rate (TMR), etc. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry was used to analyze the CHP products with its derivatives at 150 °C. This study will assess and validate the thermal hazards of CHP and incompatible reactions of CHP mixed with its derivatives, such as acetonphenone (AP), and dimethylphenyl carbinol (DMPC), that are essential to process safety design.     

Development of a sensitive surface plasmon resonance immunosensor for detection of 2,4-dinitrotoluene with a novel oligo (ethylene glycol)-based sensor surface

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) immunosensor for detection of 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), which is a signature compound of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene-related explosives, was developed by using a novel oligo (ethylene glycol) (OEG)-based sensor surface. A rabbit polyclonal antibody against 2,4-DNT (anti-DNPh-KLH-400 antibody) was prepared, and the avidity for 2,4-DNT and recognition capability were investigated by indirect competitive ELISA. The sensor surface was fabricated by immobilizing a 2,4-DNT analog onto an OEG-based self-assembled monolayer formed on a gold surface via an OEG linker. The fabricated surface was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared-refractive absorption spectrometry (FTIR-RAS). The immunosensing of 2,4-DNT is based on the indirect competitive principle, in which the immunoreaction between the anti-DNPh-KLH-400 antibody and 2,4-DNT on the sensor surface was inhibited in the presence of free 2,4-DNT in solution. The limit of detection for the immunosensor, calculated as three times the standard deviation of a blank value, was 20 pg mL⁻¹, and the linear dynamic range was found to be between 1 and 100 ng mL⁻¹. Additionally, the fabricated OEG-based surface effectively prevented non-specific adsorption of proteins, and the specific response to anti-DNPh-KLH-400 antibody was maintained for more than 30 measurement cycles.     

Metabolism of 2,4-dinitrotoluene and 2,6-dinitrotoluene, and their dinitrobenzyl alcohols and dinitrobenzaldehydes by Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rat liver microsomal and cytosol fractions

The metabolism of 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), 2,4-dinitrobenzyl alcohol (2,4-DNB), 2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde (2,4-DNBAl), 2,6-DNT, 2,6-DNB and 2,6-DNBAl in the microsomal and cytosol fractions prepared from unfortified male Wistar and male Sprague-Dawley (S.D.) rat livers was investigated. Data obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) indicated that the products of dinitrotoluenes (2,4-DNT and 2,6-DNT), dinitrobenzyl alcohols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB), and dinitrobenzaldehydes (2,4-DNBAl and 2,6-DNBAl) in the microsomal and cytosol preparations containing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAD(P] and reduced NAD(P)(NAD(P)H) were dinitrobenzyl alcohols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB), dinitrobenzaldehydes (2,4-DNBAl and 2,6-DNBAl), and dinitrobenzoic acids (2,4-DNBA and 2,6-DNBA), and dinitrobenzyl alcohols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB), respectively. From these results, it was concluded that the dinitrobenzaldehydes (2,4-DNBAl and 2,6-DNBAl) were intermediates in the oxidations of dinitrobenzyl alchols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB) to dinitrobenzoic acids (2,4-DNBA and 2,6-DNBA), and that the oxidations of dinitrobenzyl alcohols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB) to dinitrobenzaldehydes (2,4-DNBAl and 2,6-DNBAl) and the reductions of dinitrobenzaldehydes to dinitrobenzyl alcohols (2,4-DNB and 2,6-DNB) were reversible.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
