Propane, decomposition chemically activated

Other examples are the isomerization of chemically activated dimethylcyclo-propane-dj and the Hg( Pj) photosensitized decomposition of ethylene and ethylene-[Pg.72]

EPOXY-3-HYDROXY PROPANE (556-52-5) Combustible liquid (flash point 158T/ 70°C). Reacts violently with strong oxidizers. Contact with strong acids, caustics, chemically active metals (aluminum, copper, zinc, etc.), metal salts, trichloroethylene, especially in the presence of heat, can cause polymerization or exothermic decomposition. Incompatible with nitrates. Attacks some plastics, rubber, and coatings. 

The present investigation describes synthesis of an active zinc oxide through various precursor routes and evaluation of their catalytic activity towards decomposition of propan-2-ol, in relation to catalyst structure. The zinc oxide prepared by different methods are characterised by chemical analysis. X-ray diffraction, surface area and scanning electron... 

Table 1 gives the results of physicochemical analysis of the various zinc oxides. Catalytic activity of zinc oxides towards decomposition of propan-2-ol is also presented in Table 1. Chemical analysis of zinc showed results close to stoichiometry except for Z. ...

Progress is reported on the development of a wavelength-agile temperature and pressure sensor, a propane concentration sensor, an ethylene-based active control scheme, and a two-phase flow diagnostic. In the area of shock-tube kinetics studies, progress is reported on JP-10 ignition times and decomposition products to aid in the development of reduced chemical mechanisms.
