AbstractThe extraction of a coal-tar pitch with supercritical carbon dioxide was performed under optimal pressure, flow rate, and three different constant temperatures. The extraction kinetics was examined for each temperature and it was surprisingly found that the extraction rate of most components was governed by the first-order kinetics. It was assumed that this deviation from typical models of supercritical fluid extraction kinetics was caused by high pitch concentrations and low solubilities of the components.

AbstractThe kinetics of copper deposition by the hydrogen-assisted reduction of bis(2,2,7- trimethyloctane-3,5-dionato)copper in supercritical carbon dioxide was studied as a function of temperature and precursor concentration. The growth rate was found to be as high as 31.5 nm/min. Experiments between 220 °C and 270 °C indicated an apparent activation energy of 51.9 kJ/mol. The deposition kinetics were zero order with respect to precursor at 250 °C and 134 bar and precursor concentrations between 0.016 and 0.38 wt.% in CO2. Zero order kinetics over this large concentration interval likely contributes to the exceptional step coverage obtained from Cu depositions from supercritical fluids.
