Weight equivalence with energy

A 43.8 to 31.1 kJ mol = 12.7 kJ mol of additional energy is given out by the reaction when compared with energy if the reaction had been done in nitrobenzene using one equivalent weight of a tetraalkylammonium acetate. 

Thus, a semilogarithmic plot of the gel time as a function of 1/T should be linear, with the slope corresponding to the apparent activation energy. We have determined the gel times for a temperature range of 25°-50° C for a thiol-ene system consisting of stoichiometrically equivalent amounts of a trifunctional thiol, trimethylolpropane tris(2-mercaptoacetate), and a trifiinctional allyl monomer, triallyl isocyanurate. In this system, we also added 0.31% by weight of hydroquinone, to prevent premature polymerization, and 1.0% by weight of a commercial photoinitiator, Esacure TZT.
