In this article, the influences of titanium tetraisopropoxide Ti(OR)4 (R = Pri) concentration, molar ratio, h = [H2O]/[Ti(OR)4], and temperature, on the formation kinetics of the titanium-oxo-alkoxy clusters (TOAC), were studied. The TOAC formation isothermal kinetics was monitored by measuring absorbance changes versus time in the reaction mixture at predefined wavelength ? = 350 nm. It was determined that the isothermal rate of clusters formation is a power law function of titanium tetraisopropoxide concentration and the molar concentration of water (cw). The kinetic parameters ? and ? were calculated. The apparent activation energy Ea values in the clusters formation reaction has been calculated and correlated with the change of titanium tetraisopropoxide concentration and molar ratio. The model for mechanism of TOAC formation is proposed.

AbstractThe kinetics of isothermal extraction of caffeine from guarana seed under the action of ultrasonic field with simultaneous cooling (UESC) was investigated. The isothermal kinetics curves were measured at temperatures range T = 17-58°C. Using the model-fitting method it was determined that the kinetics of caffeine extraction can be described by a theoretical Jander three-dimensional diffusional model. The values of the rate constant were calculated for different temperatures, as well as the kinetic parameters (activation energy (Ea) and pre-exponential factor (lnA)). Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that the rate constants of caffeine extraction under UESC are about 2 times higher in comparison to the values obtained for the extraction in the conditions of conventional heating (CH). The activation energy of the caffeine extraction under the UESC $\left( E_{\text{a}}\,^{\text{UESC}}=19.4\,\text{kJ}\cdot \text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}} \right)$is lower than the values are for CH $\left( E_{\text{a}}\,^{\text{CH}}=21.8\,\text{kJ}\cdot \text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}} \right).$Energy consumption for UESC is four times lower than for CH conditions. It is shown that there is a linear correlation relationship between kinetic parameters obtained for UESC and CH conditions. The changes in the values of kinetic parameters are explained by the model of selective transfer of energy from the reaction system to the reactant molecules.

AbstractThe formation kinetics of BaTiO3from the solid-state BaCO3and TiO2powder in a microwave field was investigated. The quantitative XRD analysis and the model considered the volume change between reactant and product were used in this experiment. Results show that the formation rate of BaTiO3in a microwave field is much faster than upon conventional heating. The activation energy of the solid state reaction for BaTiO3was measured as 58 kJ/mol. This indicates the enhancement of diffusion by the microwave heating process.

The kinetics of in-situ β- Sialon bonded Al2O3-C (SAC) refractories were investigated by TGA techniques via isothermal nitridation experiments at different temperatures. The result show that the nitridation process of in-situ β-Sialon bonded Al2O3-C refractories can be divided into two stages: the nitridation reaction rate controlling stage in the first 10 min, and the apparent activation energy of nitridation reaction is 370 kJ/mol ; then the reaction is controlled by both chemical reaction and diffusion rate in the following 110 min, the apparent activation energy of nitridation reaction is 410 kJ/mol.

ABSTRACTPt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates seeded by SBT nanoparticles (∼60–80 nm) were used to enhance the phase formation kinetics of Sr0.7Bi2.4Ta2O9 (SBT) thin films. The volume fractions of Aurivillius phase formation obtained through quantitative x-ray diffraction (Q-XRD) analyses showed highly enhanced kinetics in seeded SBT thin films. The Avrami exponents were determined as ∼1.4 and ∼0.9 for unseeded and seeded SBT films, respectively, which reveals different nucleation modes. By using Arrhenius–type plots the activation energy values for the phase transformation of unseeded and seeded SBT thin films were determined to be ∼264 and ∼168 kJ/mol, respectively. This gives a key reason to the enhanced kinetics in seeded films. Microstructural analyses on unseeded SBT thin films showed formation of randomly oriented needle-like crystals, while those on seeded ones showed formation of domains comprised of directionally grown worm-like crystals.

In this work, the activation energy of hydroxyapatite formation in different composites under non-isothermal conditions was determined using differential thermal analysis (DTA). Seven compositions were prepared and studied while varying the percentage of the kaolin from 20 to 80 wt.% at 10% increments. The DTA conducted at heating rates of 10, 20 and 30 K min−1 showed an exothermic peak in all composites in the region 700°C–750°C associated with hydroxyapatite formation. The activation energies measured from non-isothermal treatments for seven compositions (20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 mass% of kaolin) were 194, 178, 178, 209, 162, 146 and 121 kJ mol−1, respectively.   Keywords:energy, kinetics,  kaolin - natural, phosphate mixtures

Non-isothermal magnetic studies can be used to estimate the activation energy of cooperative spin transition.


The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of benzylamine were studied by a flow method using toluene as a carrier gas. The decomposition produced NH 3 and dibenzyl in a molar ratio of 1:1, and small quantities of permanent gases consisting mainly of H 2 . Over a temperature range of 150° (650 to 800° C) the process was found to be a homogeneous gas reaction, following first-order kinetics, the rate constant being expressed by k = 6 x 10 12 exp (59,000/ RT ) sec. -1 . It was concluded, therefore, that the mechanism of the decomposition could be represented by the following equations: C 6 H 5 . CH 2 . NH 2 → C 6 H 5 . CH 2 • + NH 2 •, C 6 H 5 . CH 3 + NH 2 •→ C 6 H 5 . CH 2 • + NH 3 , 2C 6 H 5 . CH 2 •→ dibenzyl, and the experimentally determined activation energy of 59 ± 4 kcal./mole is equal to the dissociation energy of the C-N bond in benzylamine. Using the available thermochemical data we calculated on this basis the heat of formation of the NH 2 radical as 35.5 kcal./mole, in a fair agreement with the result obtained by the study of the pyrolysis of hydrazine. A review of the reactions of the NH 2 radicals is given.

The crystallization kinetics of Cu47.5Zr47.5Al5 BMG was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) using the mode of continuous heating and isothermal annealing. It is found that Tg, Tx, and Tp, display a dependence on the heating rate in the case of continuous heating. The activation energies, Eg, Ex and Tp determined by the Kissinger method, yield 445, 264 and 285 kJ/mol, respectively. The local activation energy, E(x), was determined by the Doyle-Ozawa method, which gives the average activation energy 204 kJ/mol. On the other hand, the isothermal kinetics was modeled by the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami (JMA) equation, the Avrami exponent versus crystallization fraction was calculated at different temperatures. Details of nucleation and growth behaviors are discussed in terms of the local Avrami exponent and local activation energy during the isothermal crystallization. X-ray shows that the quenched BMG only includes the glass single phase. The BMG heated to 873 K has the precipitation of the body-center cubic (BCC) CuZr.

For heterogeneous catalytic reactions, the empirical power law model is a valuable tool that explains variation in the kinetic behavior with changes in operating conditions, and therefore aids in the development of an appropriate and robust kinetic model. In the present work, experiments are performed on 1.0 wt% Pt/Al2O3 catalyst over a wide range of experimental conditions and parametric sensitivity of the power law model to the kinetics of the dehydrogenation of methylcyclohexane is studied. Power law parameters such as order of the reaction, activation energy, and kinetic rate constants are found dependent upon the operating conditions. With H2 in the feed, both apparent order of the reaction and apparent activation energy generally increase with an increase in pressure. The results suggest a kinetic model, which involves nonlinear dependence of rate on the partial pressure of hydrogen and adsorption kinetics of toluene or some intermediate.
