It is shown that there is a linear relationship between the activation energy for a thermal cis–trans isomerization and the heat of hydrogenation of the C=C bond. There is also a linear relationship between the entropy of activation and the heat of activation, there being a partial compensation effect. It is pointed out that the activation energy for these processes is very close to the π-bond energy of the C=C bond. The significance of these relationships is discussed in terms of the reaction mechanisms.

A detailed kinetic study of oxidation of toluene and its derivatives by cobaltic acetate in 95 vol% acetic acid is reported. The reaction was found to be profoundly affected by a steric factor and rather insensitive to the C—H bond energy. The order of reactivities of various alkylbenzenes is quite reversal to that of hydrogen abstraction reactions. The reaction was of first-order with respect to toluene, of second-order with respect to cobaltic ion and of inverse first-order with respect to cobaltous ion. The oxidation by cobaltic ion seems to proceed via an initial reversible electron transfer from toluene to cobaltic ion, yielding [Formula: see text] which is oxidized into benzyl acetate by another cobaltic ion. The apparent activation energy for toluene was found to be 25.3 kcal mole−1, and the same activation energy was found for ethylbenzene, cumene, diphenylmethane, and triphenylmethane.

Compensation has been reported for the relaxation parameters: the activation energy W and the pre-exponential factor τ0, determined from the Thermal Sampling of Thermally Stimulated Depolarization Current technique. Below the glass transition it is assumed that the relaxation time follows an Arrhenius equation. In the vicinity of glass transition temperature an experimental thermogram may be analyzed using the Vogel-Fulcher-Tamman-Hesse (VFTH) or the Williams- Landel -Ferry equation. In this article we use the VFTH relationship to study the compensation effect in the range of glass transition. For an elementary peak obtained by TS there is a relationship between the activation energy W, the temperature of the maximum current Tm, the VFTH temperature, the compensation temperature Tc and the compensation time τ c. We employ this relationship for a basic analysis of the compensation effect in the temperature range around Tg. By numerical simulations, and assuming parameters similar to those measured experimentally, we show that it is possible to observe a compensation point in some well defined conditions

Oil sludge (OS) is an organic solid waste in the petrochemical industry and improper treatment of OS will cause environmental pollution. Pyrolysis is an effective way to realize its resource reuse. In order to understand the pyrolysis behavior and thermodynamic characteristics of OS, four OS samples from storage tanks were used as the research object, and pyrolysis experiments were carried out at heating rates of 5, 10, and 15?/min under a nitrogen atmosphere. The kinetic parameters of pyrolysis of OS are calculated by three equal conversion methods (Friedman method (FR), Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method (FWO) and Distributed activation energy model (DAEM)), and the most possible thermodynamic models for the main pyrolysis phase were analyzed and discussed by introducing the Malek method. The results show: High heating rate can promote the pyrolysis of OS; In the pyrolysis stage, the apparent activation energy increases with the increase of the conversion rate. The apparent activation energy calculated by the FR method is more reliable. The average apparent activation energies of the four OS are 221.23, 84.71, 94.67 and 116.56 kJ/mol, respectively. The apparent activation energy and the pre-exponential factor are positively correlated, indicating that there is a kinetic compensation effect in the pyrolysis process. The thermodynamic models of the four OS samples are all three-dimensional diffusion models, but their integral functions are different. The research results can provide theoretical support for the industrialization, harmlessness and resource utilization of OS pyrolysis.

The nature of the crystallization water in some hydrates with different cations, namely: MnSO4?H2O; FeSO4?7H2O; CoSO4?7H2O; NiSO4?7H2O, has been studied by the application of the following non-isothermal techniques: thermogravimetry (TG), derivative thermogravimetry (DTG), and differential thermal analysis (DTA). Analysis of the characteristic thermogravimetric data (Tm, W ) and of the kinetic parameters (n, Ea) calculated from DTG and DTA data - with CuSO4?5H2O as a reference - demonstrated the existence of crystallization and anionwater in the studiedhydrates. The activation energy of the process of anion water elimination does not depend on the nature of the cation. This conclusion was confirmed by the absence of the compensation effect in this process.
