Model experiments were carried out using mixtures of 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD), its precursor glycerol, NaCl, water and an emulsifier. The aim of this study was to simulate formation and decomposition of 3-MCPD at the surface layers of thermally processed foods containing naturally present or intentionally added salt. The formed 3-MCPD levels depend on temperature and reach the maximum value at 230°C. One kg of glycerol gives rise to about 50 mg of 3-MCPD, while about 0.6 mg of 3-MCPD arise at 100°C. The rate constants k<sub>1</sub> of 3-MCPD formation from glycerol and constants k<sub>2</sub> of 3-MCPD decomposition were calculated employing the first order reaction kinetics. The rate constants k<sub>2</sub> of 3-MCPD degradation are higher than the respective constants of its formation. Other kinetic parameters (time of maximum concentration) were also calculated and the achieved results were discussed with respect to levels of 3-MCPD in foods.

The Difference

The reactivity of the phytochrome chromophore and related tetrapyrroles towards ozone and tetranitromethane was investigated. Both oxidizing reagents cause bleaching of the main absorp­tion band of the pigment. The rate constants for this bleaching were determined under conditions of pseudo first order reaction kinetics. The rate constants for the reaction with ozone are similar for native phytochrome and for freely accessible tetrapyrroles (biliverdin, small chromopeptides from phytochrome) indicating that accessibility is not the limiting factor for the reaction with ozone. Under a variety of conditions, the Pfr chromophore reacts by about 10% faster than the Pr chromophore. This may reflect the true difference in reactivity. The rate constants for the reaction with tetranitromethane are much larger for biliverdin, bilirubin and small chromopeptides from phytochrome than for native phytochrome. The limiting factor for this reaction in native phytochrome therefore is the accessibility of the chromophore by the reagent. Previous conclusions on the difference in exposure of the tetrapyrrole chromophore in Pr and Pfr are confirmed.

Abstract This study concerns the sulfur vulcanization of EPT with dithiocarbamate accelerators. The reactions undergone by the accelerators are equivalent to those found during natural rubber or SBR vulcanization; TMTM and TMTD are almost completely converted to ZDMC. During vulcanization about 50% of the double bonds are saturated, and approximately one crosslink is formed for each two double bonds initially present. Equilibrium swelling measurements before and after mercaptan cleavage were used to determine the concentration of all crosslinks and that of monosulfide ones as functions of vulcanization conditions. Vulcanization kinetic were followed by Monsanto rheometer measurements. The process takes place in two stages: an initial fast reaction representing vulcanization by the primary accelerator, followed by a slower first order reaction due to acceleration by ZDMC. Accelerator, sulfur, and zinc oxide concentrations have little effect on the rate constants which, however, are nearly proportional to polymer unsaturation. The rate constants approximately double with each temperature rise of 10° C.

The kinetics of methylation of methyl 5-deoxy-α-D-xylofuranoside (1), methyl 5-deoxy-β-D-xylofuranoside (2) and their partly methylated derivatives with methyl iodide in the presence of sodium hydroxide in acetonitrile was studied. The reaction rate was independent of the base concentration during the first half-time only and the methylation proceeded as a first-order reaction. The rate constants of all side and consecutive reactions were calculated and the influence of both polar and steric effect is discussed. The methylation of 1 was highly regioselective giving almost exclusively 5-deoxy-2-O-methyl-α-D-xylofuranoside.

Abstract Direct Determination of the Rate Constants for the Sr-and Ba-exchange Between the Small and Large Channels in LMS 13X The rate constants for the intracristalline Sr-and Ba-exchange between the small and large diameter channels of LMS 13X were measured. For this matter the method of interrupting the ion exchange was modified. It is assumed, that a first order reaction takes place. Using the rate constants and the diffusion coefficients, which were measured by Hoinkis and Levi, the total exchange of Sr 2+ and Ba 2+ could be calculated.

AbstractPhycocyanin is a natural substance that can be used as an antioxidant and food colorant. The quality of phycocyanin deteriorates when it is exposed to heat, and such deterioration is evidenced by decreases in its antioxidant activity and color. Encapsulation, which introduces a coating material over a substance of interest, has been applied to prevent changes in substance quality. The objective of the present research is to evaluate the kinetics of thermal degradation of phycocyanin coated with carrageenan or chitosan. Encapsulated phycocyanin samples were exposed to temperatures of 40, 50, or 60 °C for 90 min, and kinetics of the resulting degradation was evaluated to determine changes in sample quality. The results showed that the thermal degradation of encapsulated phycocyanin at 40–60 °C follows first-order reaction kinetics with reaction rate constants (k) of 4.67–9.17 × 10–5 s-1 and 3.83–7.67 × 10–5 s-1 for carrageenan and chitosan, respectively, and that the k of encapsulated phycocyanin is slower than that obtained from samples without the coating materials (control). Encapsulation efficiencies (EE) of 68.66 % and 76.45 %, as well as loading capacities of 45.28 % and 49.16 %, were, respectively, obtained for carrageenan and chitosan.

The current study was conducted to investigate the photocatalytic degradation kinetics of humic acid at different light intensities using commercialTiO2powders. The pseudo first order kinetic model and Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) rate equation in modified forms were used to compare the photocatalytic activities ofTiO2materials as a function of light intensity. Under constant irradiation conditions, the pseudo first order reaction rates as well as L-H rates were found to be decreasing in the following trend; Degussa P-25, Millennium PC-500 and Millennium PC-100. The pseudo first order rate constants showed the same decreasing trend as the pseudo first order reaction rates while L-H rate constants exhibited a light intensity related change in the ordering of the photocatalysts. At the lowest light intensity, L-H rate constants decreased as follows: Millennium PC-500>Millennium PC-100>Degussa P-25. However, increasing the light intensity changed the order to; Millennium PC-100>Millennium PC-500>Degussa P-25 revealing the significance of the L-H adsorption constant. Under constant irradiation conditions, ionic strength dependent changes in the structure of humic acid did not alter degradation efficiency trend of the photocatalyst specimens and they were ordered such as; Degussa P-25>Millennium PC-500>Hombikat UV-100>Millennium PC-100 > Merck. The results presented in this research also confirmed the effectiveness of Degussa P-25 as a photocatalyst for the degradation of humic acid.

The kinetics of the non-enzymatic browning reaction from l-ascorbic acid/l-cysteine model systems was investigated at 125–155°C for 10–120 min by measuring the loss of reactants and monitoring the brown colour development. The result showed that the browning products were produced at the first order reaction kinetics requirement, with the E<sub>a</sub> being 114.33 kJ/mol. The mechanism for the browning development was proposed. The correlation coefficient between browning products and uncoloured intermediate products increased with the rising temperature. At temperatures below 110°C, the non-enzymatic browning reaction did not occur at all or the reaction was slow. Browning products could not be produced solely by self-degradation of l-cysteine. The amount of browning products negatively correlated with the l-ascorbic acid concentration.

Limiting Value

Abstract Bound sulfur in a pure thiuram vulcanizate increases relatively rapidly at first at all temperatures, reaches a poorly defined maximum at about 27 to 30%, independent of temperature, and then recedes slightly to reach a limiting value of 25% also independent of temperature, based on the original thiuram disulfide. The rise in sulfur content at the start points to a temperature-independent limiting value of 33%. It is shown that the combination of sulfur in this region initially follows a first order reaction, and goes at the same rate as the reduction in concentration of thiuram disulfide. It can be seen from the above that sulfur may be combined in thiuram vulcanization without simultaneous crosslinking. The dithiocarbamate formation increases rapidly in the region of longer vulcanization times, after the maximum in bound sulfur has been reached, without further combination of sulfur with the vulcanizate. The rate constants for thiuram decrease, for dithiocarbamate increase and for sulfur combination were calculated. The temperature dependence of each of these reactions has practically the same activation energy, 23 kcal/mole. The bound sulfur content of the vulcanizates in pure thiuram vulcanizations is no criterion of the state of vulcanization.
