ABSTRACTThe effect of Cu on the kinetics of compound formation between Al and transition metals such as Hf and Ti has been studied by resistivity measurement and Rutherford backscattering (RBS) in the temperature range of 325°C to 450°C. Thin film couples consisting of 150nm-thick transition metal film and 600nm-thick Al-Cu film were used, in which the Cu content was varied from 0 to 9 wt%. The intermetallic phases were found to grow as (time)1/2. Most interestingly, the reaction rate constants were found to decrease significantly with increasing Cu content, but to level off for Cu contents greater than about 2 wt%. The corresponding activation energy for a given Altransition metal reaction was found to increase with increasing Cu for Cu contents up to 2wt%. For example, when 4 wt% Cu is added to Al, the rate constant at 400°C for HfA13 is reduced by about a factor of 5, while the activation energy increases from 1.5 eV to 2.0 eV. RBS results indicate that the Cu addition seems to inhibit the diffusion of Hf into Al. Diffusive intermixing in the Al/Ti system is much smaller and, consequently, the effect of Cu additions in preventing Ti diffusion into the Al is also much smaller.

AbstractDissolution kinetics of sepiolite from Eskisehir (Turkey) have been investigated at various temperatures and particle sizes using dilute hydrochloric and nitric acids. Dissolution reaction rate constants were calculated and apparent activation energies were dependent on acid concentration. For both acids, apparent activation energy values reached a minimum of ∼11 kcal/mol at an acid concentration of 0·75 M. For the second-order reaction which is independent of the acid concentration, the activation energy was 14·5 kcal/mol for both acids. The reaction rate constants were proportional to the acid concentrations, and inversely proportional to the square-root of the initial particle radii of the sepiolite.

This article is devoted to modeling the kinetics of colloidal crystallization of cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanoparticles (NPs). The kinetic equation is modified, considering the contributions of the reaction rate constants of individual stages. It includes the reaction rate constants, thermodynamic and calculated parameters, and physical properties. There is used modified kinetic model based on the crystallization equation. There are considered the contributions of adsorption, desorption, and migration of nucleated particles at different times. Modified model assumes that, upon crystallization of NPs CdSe, monomer units depend on the frequency of attachment and detachment transitions of the monomer–CdSe complex. In this case, the transformation of the precursor into a monomer, the formation of an effective monomer and nucleation pass into the growth stage of (NC CdSe) nanocrystals with a seeded mass. In the process, the resulting nanocluster will continue to grow due to early maturation, aging, and subsequent growth into larger NC CdSe. The Kinetic Monte Carlo method (KMC) is used to approximate the model of the nucleation–growth of NC considering different contributions to the reaction rate constants. The modified model with the use of KMC allows to describe the dependences of the kinetic rate constants on the average radius of nanoparticles as a function of time, concentration, and distribution of NC CdSe at a given time. There are described conditions for the formation of NPs CdSe with an evolutionary distribution function of NC CdSe in size space. The results of modeling the kinetics of colloidal crystallization of CdSe can be used to control nucleation rate and growth of NPs CdSe, as well as similar systems in the formation of high-quality NC.

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.

A method to detect the L-proline- (L-Pro-) catalyzed Michael addition reaction in model biomembranes has been established, using N-[p(2-benzimidazolyl)phenyl]maleimide and acetone as reactants. The effect of liposome membranes on this reaction was kinetically analyzed using fluorescence spectroscopy. The kinetics of the reaction were different from those of the constituent lipids of the liposomes. Zwitterionic 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine liposome, which is in the solid-ordered phase, had a better value of reaction rate, suggesting that the reaction rate constants of this reaction in liposome membrane systems could be regulated by the characteristics of the liposome membrane (i.e., the phase state and surface charge). Based on the results obtained, a plausible model of the L-Pro-catalyzed Michael addition reaction was discussed. The obtained results provide us with an easily detectable method to assess the reactivity of L-Pro in biological systems.

The most common cause of diseases in swimming pools is the lack of sanitary control of water quality; water may contain microbiological and chemical contaminants. Among the people most at risk of infection are children, pregnant women, and immunocompromised people. The origin of the problem is a need to develop a system that can predict the formation of chlorine water disinfection by-products, such as trihalomethanes (THMs). THMs are volatile organic compounds from the group of alkyl halides, carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, and bioaccumulating. Long-term exposure, even to low concentrations of THM in water and air, may result in damage to the liver, kidneys, thyroid gland, or nervous system. This article focuses on analysis of the kinetics of swimming pool water reaction in analytical device reproducing its circulation on a small scale. The designed and constructed analytical device is based on the SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC driver of SIEMENS Company. The HMI KPT panel of SIEMENS Company enables monitoring the process and control individual elements of device. Value of the reaction rate constant of free chlorine decomposition gives us qualitative information about water quality, it is also strictly connected to the kinetics of the reaction. Based on the experiment results, the value of reaction rate constant was determined as a linear change of the natural logarithm of free chlorine concentration over time. The experimental value of activation energy based on the directional coefficient is equal to 76.0 [kJ×mol−1]. These results indicate that changing water temperature does not cause any changes in the reaction rate, while it still affects the value of the reaction rate constant. Using the analytical device, it is possible to constantly monitor the values of reaction rate constant and activation energy, which can be used to develop a new way to assess pool water quality.

AbstractThe reduction of pyruvic acid in near-critical water has successfully been conducted under conditions of various temperatures, pressures, reaction time and the presence of formic acid as the reducing agent. In this work, additives (K2CO3, KHCO3, and sodium acetate) used in the reduction of pyruvic acid were also investigated. The results showed that by adding K2CO3 (25 mole %) a markedly higher lactic acid yield (70.7 %) was obtained than without additives (31.3 %) at 573.15 K, pressure of 8.59 MPa, 60 min, and in the presence of 2 mol L−1 formic acid. As a base catalyst, K2CO3 definitely accelerated the reduction of pyruvic acid. The reaction rate constants, average apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factor were evaluated in accordance with the Arrhenius equation. The reaction mechanism of the reduction was proposed on the basis of the experimental results.

In this study, the kinetics of hydrazodicarbonamide (HDCA) synthesis reaction was investigated. Hydrazodicarbonamide is prepared by reaction of urea and hydrazine in acidic medium. Synthesis of HDCA from urea and hydrazine is a two steps reaction. In the first step, semicarbazide is synthesized from the reaction of one mole of urea and one mole of hydrazine and in the second step, semicarbazide reacts with urea to produce hydrazodicarbonamide. By controlling the temperature and pH in the reaction, hydrazine concentration and the amount of produced hydrazodicarbonamide were measured and using these data, reaction rate constants were calculated. Based on this study, it was found that the semicarbazide formation reaction from hydrazine is the rate limiting step. Rate of semicarbazide synthesis is -r1 = 0.1396 [NH2NH2]0.5810 and the rate of hydrazodicarbonamide synthesis is -r2 = 0.7715 [NH2NHCONH2]0.8430.

AbstractPhycocyanin is a natural substance that can be used as an antioxidant and food colorant. The quality of phycocyanin deteriorates when it is exposed to heat, and such deterioration is evidenced by decreases in its antioxidant activity and color. Encapsulation, which introduces a coating material over a substance of interest, has been applied to prevent changes in substance quality. The objective of the present research is to evaluate the kinetics of thermal degradation of phycocyanin coated with carrageenan or chitosan. Encapsulated phycocyanin samples were exposed to temperatures of 40, 50, or 60 °C for 90 min, and kinetics of the resulting degradation was evaluated to determine changes in sample quality. The results showed that the thermal degradation of encapsulated phycocyanin at 40–60 °C follows first-order reaction kinetics with reaction rate constants (k) of 4.67–9.17 × 10–5 s-1 and 3.83–7.67 × 10–5 s-1 for carrageenan and chitosan, respectively, and that the k of encapsulated phycocyanin is slower than that obtained from samples without the coating materials (control). Encapsulation efficiencies (EE) of 68.66 % and 76.45 %, as well as loading capacities of 45.28 % and 49.16 %, were, respectively, obtained for carrageenan and chitosan.
