Partially Diffusion Controlled

Recovery of dilute acetic acid is achieved by esterification with methanol using a sulfonated resin (Dowex 50w) in a packed distillation column (54). Pure methyl acetate is obtained. This reaction is second order in acetic acid, 2ero order in methanol, and partially diffusion controlled. [Pg.377]

Nearly all computations of radiation-chemical yields use either diffusion kinetics (see, e.g., Schwarz, 1969) or stochastic kinetics (Zaider et ah, 1983 Clifford et al, 1987 Pimblott, 1988 Paretzke et ah, 1991 Pimblott et ah, 1991). Diffusion kinetics uses deterministic rate laws and considers the reactions to be (partially) diffusion controlled while the reactants are also diffusing... [Pg.53]

After the jump, the particle is taken to have reacted with a given probability if its distance from another particle is within the reaction radius. For fully diffusion-controlled reactions, this probability is unity for partially diffusion-controlled reactions, this reaction probability has to be consistent with the specific rate by a defined procedure. The probability that the particle may have reacted while executing the jump is approximated for binary encounters by a Brownian bridge—that is, it is assumed to be given by exp[—(x — a)(y — a)/D St], where a is the reaction radius, x andy are the interparticle separations before and after the jump, and D is the mutual diffusion coefficient of the reactants. After all... [Pg.220]

Green and Pimblott (1989) have extended the IRT model to partially diffusion-controlled reactions between neutrals. They derive an analytical expression that involves an additional parameter, namely the reaction velocity at encounter. For reactions between charged species, W generally cannot be given analytically but must be obtained numerically. Furthermore, numerical inversion to get t then... [Pg.222]

The second boundary condition assures total finite existence probability at any time the first boundary condition implies that the recombination is fully diffusion-controlled, which has been found to be true in various liquid hydrocarbons (Allen and Holroyd, 1974). [The inner boundary condition can be suitably modified for partially diffusion-controlled reactions, which, however, does not seem to have been done.]... [Pg.235]

Another virtue of the procedure is that it can explicitly take into account a partially diffusion-controlled recombination reaction in the form of Collins-Kimball radiation boundary condition—namely, j(R, t) = -m(R, t) where j(R, t) is the current density at the reaction radius and K is the reaction velocity k— < > implies a fully diffusion-controlled reaction. Thus, the time dependence of e-ion recombination in high-mobility liquids can also be calculated by the Hong-Noolandi treatment. [Pg.237]

The foregoing treatment can be extended to cases where the electron-ion recombination is only partially diffusion-controlled and where the electron scattering mean free path is greater than the intermolecular separation. Both modifications are necessary when the electron mobility is - 100 cm2v is-1 or greater (Mozumder, 1990). It has been shown that the complicated random trajectory of a diffusing particle with a finite mean free path can have a simple representation in fractal diffusivity (Takayasu, 1982). In practice, this means the diffusion coefficient becomes distance-dependent of the form... [Pg.293]

Equation (9.3) has been derived for one-dimensional diffusion and supported by molecular dynamics simulation in the three-dimensional case (Powles, 1985 Tsurumi and Takayasu, 1986 Rappaport, 1984). For the partially diffusion-controlled recombination reaction we again refer to Figure 9.1, where the inner (Collins-Kimball) boundary condition is now given as... [Pg.293]

After obtaining from the measured value of kl by this procedure, one can determine the attachment efficiency in the quasi-free state, rj = fe1f/fed.ff, by the same procedure as for scavenging reactions (see Eq. 10.11 et seq.). Mozumder (1996) classifies the attachment reactions somewhat arbitrarily as nearly diffusion-controlled, partially diffusion-controlled, and not diffusion-controlled depending on whether the efficiency p > 0.5, 0.5 > r > 0.2, or r < 0.2, respectively. By this criterion, the attachment reaction efficiency generally falls with electron mobility. Nearly diffusion-controlled reactions can only be seen in the liquids of the lowest mobility. Typical values of r] are (1) 0.65 and 0.72 respectively for styrene and p-C6H4F2 in n-hexane (2) 0.14 and 0.053 respectively for a-methylstyrene and naphthalene in isooctane (3) 1.8 X 10-3 for C02 in neopentane and (4) 0.043 and 0.024 respectively for triphenylene and naphthalene in TMS. [Pg.357]

Liquid phase chlorination work in the former U.S.S.R. has been summarized by Vereshchinskii (1972). With tetradecane, the reaction is nearly or partially diffusion-controlled at a dose rate of 0.1-0.4 rad s-1. However, during the chlorination process, the liquid phase properties change continuously because of chlorine absorption accompanying the chemical reactions. Due to long chain reactions the chlorination G value is high and can reach 105 per 100 eV of energy absorption. At around 10-30°C the reaction rate is found to vary as the square root of the dose rate. A set of consecutive reactions has been reported in the liquid phase chlorination of 1,1,1,5-tetrachloropentane (Vereshchinskii, 1972). [Pg.370]

Although electroless deposition seems to offer greater prospects for deposit thickness and composition uniformity than electrodeposition, the achievement of such uniformity is a challenge. An understanding of catalysis and deposition mechanisms, as in Section 3, is inadequate to describe the operation of a practical electroless solution. Solution factors, such as the presence of stabilizers, dissolved O2 gas, and partially-diffusion-controlled, metal ion reduction reactions, often can strongly influence deposit uniformity. In the field of microelectronics, backend-of-line (BEOL) linewidths are approaching 0.1 pm, which is much less than the diffusion layer thickness for a... [Pg.259]

The results just described, while useful in the interpretation of the photographic results obtained by physical development of a latent image, do not yield much information on the ultimate mechanism of physical development. Arens conditions correspond closely to those obtaining during physical development of a photographic material, but the rate of this process is dependent on the rate of agitation of the developing solution (Vanselow and Quirk, 30) and hence is at least partially diffusion controlled. [Pg.120]

While many of the important reactions in radiation and photochemistry are fast, not all are diffusion-limited. The random flight simulation methodology has been extended to include systems where reaction is only partially diffusion-controlled or is spin-controlled [54,55]. The technique for calculating the positions of the particles following a reflecting encounter has been described in detail, but (thus far) this improvement has not been incorporated in realistic diffusion kinetic simulations. Random flight techniques have been successfully used to model the radiation chemistry of aqueous solutions [50] and to investigate ion kinetics in hydrocarbons [48,50,56-58]. [Pg.91]

This expression characterizes the escape probability for the partially diffusion-controlled geminate ion recombination. [Pg.263]

Calculation of the electric field dependence of the escape probability for boundary conditions other than Eq. (11b) with 7 = 0 poses a serious theoretical problem. For the partially reflecting boundary condition imposed at a nonzero R, some analytical treatments were presented by Hong and Noolandi [11]. However, their theory was not developed to the level, where concrete results of (p(ro,F) for the partially diffusion-controlled geminate recombination could be obtained. Also, in the most general case, where the reaction is represented by a sink term, the analytical treatment is very complicated, and the only practical way to calculate the field dependence of the escape probability is to use numerical methods. [Pg.265]

In the case of partially diffusion-controlled recombination, which is described by Eq. (33), the recombination rate constant is calculated as [28]... [Pg.273]

The results obtained in Ref 30 for partially diffusion-controlled recombination show that the field dependence of the recombination rate constant is affected by both the reaction radius R and the reactivity parameter p [cf. Eq. (33)]. Depending on their relative values, the rate constant can be increased or decreased by the electric field. The latter effect predominates at low values of p, where the reactants staying at the encounter distance are forced to separate by the electric field. [Pg.274]

For the description of partially diffusion-controlled energy-transfer reactions often the reaction scheme and theory introduced by Rehm and Weller [133] as well as by Balzani et al. [134] are applied ... [Pg.387]

It is interesting to note that eqn. (190) is reminiscent of the steady-state Collins and Kimball rate coefficient [4] [eqn. (27)] with kact replaced by kacig R) and 4ttRD by eqn. (189). Equation (190) for the rate coefficient is significantly less than the Smoluchowski rate coefficient on two counts hydrodynamics repulsion and rate of encounter pair reaction. Had experimental studies shown that a measured rate coefficient was within a factor of two of the Smoluchowski rate coefficient, it would be tempting to invoke partial diffusion control of the reaction rate. The reduction of rate due to hydrodynamic repulsion should be included first and then the effect of moderately slow reaction rates between encounter pairs. [Pg.236]

In the case of a highly viscous solution the influence of viscosity tj can dominate (Eichhorn, 1997). For simple, uncharged particles in water at 25 °C the second-order rate constant is 3.2 x 109 (m s) 1 (Gerischer, 1969 Creutz, 1977). Some cases of wholly or partially diffusion-controlled enzyme reactions are listed in Table 2.1. Rearrangement of Eq. 2.7 results in Eq. 2.13. [Pg.27]

However, this slowing down may not be observed for reactions with a significant activation energy simulations conducted by Lopez-Quintela and co-workers show that partially diffusion-controlled reactions are more favored in media with a higher degree of compartmentalization because of an increase in the recollision probability. [Pg.341]

In practice, (f) can be calculated by inserting experimental copolymerization rates into Eq. (7.64). The values of (j> thus obtained are frequently greater than unity, and these deviations are ascribed to polar effects that favor cross-termination over homotermination. However, this is not always unambiguous, since the apparent cross-termination factor may vary with monomer feed composition in a given system [25,26]. It is clear also that termination reactions are at least partially diffusion controlled [27,28]. A dependence of segmental diffusivity on the structure of macroradicals is to be expected and dependence of diffusion controlled termination on copolymer composition seems reasonable. It is therefore plausible that the value of the overall termination rate constant ku in copolymerizations should be functions of fractions F and Fi) of the comonomers incorporated in the copolymer. An empirical expression for ku has thus been proposed [27] ... [Pg.623]

There is obviously less diffusion control if the slices of immobilized enzyme are thin rather than thick, since the substrate then has ready access to the enzyme. Under biological conditions, substrate concentrations are usually substantially less than required to saturate the enzyme. Some diffusion control is therefore to be expected, especially if the macromolecular structural material is fairly thick. It has been estimated that in muscle filaments, of thickness approximately 0.1 micrometres (/ m), there is essentially no diffusion control. On the other hand with muscle fibers, of thickness approximately 5 xm, the enzyme reaction is almost completely diffusion controlled. Muscle fibrils, of thickness approximately 2 / m, lie in between, and there is partial diffusion control. [Pg.452]
