A new analytical method is presented for the determination of rate constants using a periodical irradiation technique. This method is applicable to reactions which have both a first and a second order termination for the chain radical concentration, and is illustrated for the radiolysis of aqueous solutions of chloral hydrate by 137Cs γ rays. The apparent rate constant of first order termination, and the mean chain life time of the chain radical were determined to be 1.10 s−1, and 0.25 s for 400 rad/min, at 22 °C, respectively.

The kinetics of TBBPA degradation by ozonation in semi-batch reactor was studied. The reaction rate constants of TBBPA with O3 and •OH were measured by means of direct ozone attack and competition kinetics, and the values of which were 6.10 l/(mol•s), 4.8×109 l/(mol•s), respectively. Results of kinetic studies showed that TBBPA degradation by ozonation under the different conditions tested followed the pseudo-first-order. The values of apparent rate constant of TBBPA degradation increased with the increase of ozone dosage and pH, but decreased with the increase of initial TBBPA concentration.

AbstractThe microstructure developed in a first order phase transformation is obtained using a populational extension of the Kolmogorov, Johnson-Mehl and Avrami (KJMA) model, PKJMA. PKJMA allows one to determine the grain size distribution resulting from nucleation and growth kinetics. PKJMA is grounded on the mean field hypothesis that the free space around the growing grains is randomly distributed, independent of the grain radius. Although this approach is perfectly valid for the case of constant nucleation, a detailed analysis of the model shows that this hypothesis does not hold in the case of time dependent nucleation protocols or pre-existing nuclei. In this work, the PKJMA model has been improved by estimating the average free surface around the grains as a function of their radius and the time elapsed since nucleation. The resulting model gives quantitative determination of the microstructure developed under a variety of nucleation and growth processes: pre-existing nuclei, constant nucleation, and the combination of both mechanisms, constant and radius dependent growth rates. Comparison with Monte Carlo simulations, showing a quantitative agreement will be presented.

Abstract Direct Determination of the Rate Constants for the Sr-and Ba-exchange Between the Small and Large Channels in LMS 13X The rate constants for the intracristalline Sr-and Ba-exchange between the small and large diameter channels of LMS 13X were measured. For this matter the method of interrupting the ion exchange was modified. It is assumed, that a first order reaction takes place. Using the rate constants and the diffusion coefficients, which were measured by Hoinkis and Levi, the total exchange of Sr 2+ and Ba 2+ could be calculated.
