Methodologies temperature jump

The most common methodology for measuring fast kinetics in real time is to perturb a system at equilibrium for a time duration that is much shorter than the relaxation kinetics that follow perturbation. This perturbation can be achieved by changing the concentration of chemicals through fast mixing (stopped-flow), changing the temperature of the solution (temperature jump), simultaneously changing the... 

Apart of giving a sohd thermodynamic basis for the analysis of temperature variation on interfacial studies, we have shown in this chapter how a methodology based on temperature jump perturbation techniques can result in significantly advantages, not only in terms of convenience from the experimental point of view, but also in the possibihty of selectively separate processes based on their different characteristic response time.
