The activation parameters for an initiator can be deterrnined at normal atmospheric pressure by plotting In vs 1/T using initiator decomposition rates obtained in dilute solution (0.2 M or lower) at several temperatures. Rate data from dilute solutions are requited in order to avoid higher order reactions such as induced decompositions. The intercept for the resulting straight line is In and the slope of the line is —E jR therefore both and E can be calculated. 

Basic oxides of metals such as Co, Mn, Fe, and Cu catalyze the decomposition of chlorate by lowering the decomposition temperature. Consequendy, less fuel is needed and the reaction continues at a lower temperature. Cobalt metal, which forms the basic oxide in situ, lowers the decomposition of pure sodium chlorate from 478 to 280°C while serving as fuel (6,7). Composition of a cobalt-fueled system, compared with an iron-fueled system, is 90 wt % NaClO, 4 wt % Co, and 6 wt % glass fiber vs 86% NaClO, 4% Fe, 6% glass fiber, and 4% BaO. Initiation of the former is at 270°C, compared to 370°C for the iron-fueled candle. Cobalt hydroxide produces a more pronounced lowering of the decomposition temperature than the metal alone, although the water produced by decomposition of the hydroxide to form the oxide is thought to increase chlorine contaminate levels. Alkaline earths and transition-metal ferrates also have catalytic activity and improve chlorine retention (8). 

Further hydrolysis of the carbon disulfide and the trithiocarbonate produces hydrogen sulfide, etc (33). In another study of the decomposition of sodium ethyl xanthate [140-90-9] in flotation solutions, eleven components of breakdown were studied. The dependence of concentration of those components vs time was examined by solving a set of differential equations (34). 

The decomposition of A2B2 to A2 and B2 at 38CC was monitored as a function of time. A plot of 1/[A2B2] vs. time is linear, with slope 0.137/M-min. 

Whereas the electrochemical decomposition of propylene carbonate (PC) on graphite electrodes at potentials between 1 and 0.8 V vs. Li/Li was already reported in 1970 [140], it took about four years to find out that this reaction is accompanied by a partially reversible electrochemical intercalation of solvated lithium ions, Li (solv)y, into the graphite host [64], In general, the intercalation of Li (and other alkali-metal) ions from electrolytes with organic donor solvents into fairly crystalline graphitic carbons quite often yields solvated (ternary) lithiated graphites, Li r(solv)yC 1 (Fig. 8) [7,24,26,65,66,141-146],... 

Aryl radicals are produced in the decomposition of alkylazobenzenes and diazonium salts, and by f)-scission of aroyloxy radicals (Scheme 3.73). Aryl radicals have been reported to react by aromatic subsitution (e.g. of Sh) or abstract hydrogen (e.g. from MMA10) in competition with adding to a monomer double bond. However, these processes typically account for <1% of the total. The degree of specificity for tail vs head addition is also very high. Significant head addition has been observed only where tail addition is retarded by sleric factors e.g. methyl crotonate10 and -substituted methyl vinyl ketones 79, 84). 

It is also necessary to select the initiator according to the particular monomer(s) and the substrate. Factors to consider in this context, aside from initiator half-lives and decomposition rates, are the partition coefficient ot the initiator between the monomer and polyolefin phases and the reactivity of the monomer vs the polyolefin towards the initiator-derived radicals. 

For the reduction of metal complexes, the half-wave potential is shifted to more negative potentials (vs. the true metal ion), reflecting the additional energy required for the decomposition of the complex. Consider the reversible reduction of a hypothetical metal complex, MLp ... 

Incidentally, isocyanides are polar (for CNC H, the dipole moment is 3.44 D) and they are good bases (vs. BRj, H+), whereas CO is a poor base hence isocyanides can function as ligands in metal complexes where carbon monoxide does not. The scarcity of low-valent isocyanide complexes is less easily explained, however. Arguments involving 77-acceptor capacity are quite inappropriate. More data on low-valent species, and evaluations of stabilities, modes of decomposition, and reactions are desirable. 

Kinetic analysis based on the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model was performed on the assumption that ethylene and water vapor molecules were adsorbed on the same active site competitively [2]. We assumed then that overall photocatalytic decomposition rate was controlled by the surface reaction of adsorbed ethylene. Under the water vapor concentration from 10,200 to 28,300ppm, and the ethylene concentration from 30 to 100 ppm, the reaction rate equation can be represented by Eq.(l), based on the fitting procedure of 1/r vs. 1/ Ccm ...
