Pressure on kinetics

More information is needed on carbonate reaction kinetics near equilibrium in complex and high ionic strength solutions, and the influences of temperature and pressure on kinetics to near metamorphic conditions. 

In addition to the free volume [36,37] and coupling [43] models, the Gibbs-Adams-DiMarzo [39-42], (GAD), entropy model and the Tool-Narayanaswamy-Moynihan [44—47], (TNM), model are used to analyze the history and time-dependent phenomena displayed by glassy supercooled liquids. Havlicek, Ilavsky, and Hrouz have successfully applied the GAD model to fit the concentration dependence of the viscoelastic response of amorphous polymers and the normal depression of Tg by dilution [100]. They have also used the model to describe the compositional variation of the viscoelastic shift factors and Tg of random Copolymers [101]. With Vojta they have calculated the model molecular parameters for 15 different polymers [102]. They furthermore fitted the effect of pressure on kinetic processes with this thermodynamic model [103]. Scherer has also applied the GAD model to the kinetics of structural relaxation of glasses [104], The GAD model is based on the decrease of the crHiformational entropy of polymeric chains with a decrease in temperature. How or why it applies to nonpolymeric systems remains a question. 

Carbonyl compounds as carbon acids have been reviewed from kinetic and thermodynamic perspectives. " Effects of high pressure on kinetic isotope effects have been interpreted using a new equation which permits a distinction between pressure-sensitive transition state phenomena (such as tunnelling) and the pressure-insensitive dependence on zero-point energy difference.
