On the Incorrectness of the Factor 2 in the Radical Termination Equation |
|
| Authors: | Ryszard Szymanski |
| Abstract: | The IUPAC recommended factor 2 preceding rate coefficients in the radical termination kinetic equations is claimed to be incorrect and confusing. This recommendation can lead to incorrect analysis of experimental data, especially while applying kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. The statement is based on the derivation of the corresponding relationships.  |
