AbstractIntensity enhancement due to the addition of discharged O2 is examined for background N2 (B Πg → A3Σu+) emissions in various flowing nitrogen afterglows. Possible implications are reported for the experimentally determined rate constants for the reactions {N2 (A3Σu+, υ) + O(3P)}, and {O2 (a1Δg) + N(4S)}, as a result of the present study. The present, as well as previously reported, N2 (B Πg → A3Σu+) emissions intensity enhancements suggest complementary conclusions. Previous differences in experimental results reported for the {O2 (a1Δg) + N(4S)} reaction [based on studies observing the decay of either O2 (a1Δg) molecules or N(4S) atoms alone] are reconciled by a unifying additional interpretation. This interpretation leads to a rate constant estimate for the energy transfer reaction, {O2 (a1Δg) + N(2(A3Σu+)}, deduced to account for the above N2 (B3Πg → A3Σu+) emissions intensity enhancements.

This article focus on the calculation of photodecomposition rate constant of PVC films that containing sulfadiazine tin(IV) complexes 1-3 as photostabilzers during UV radiation exposure. This constant calculated as a method for evaluating the efficiency of sulfadiazine tin(IV) complexes 1-3 when used as a PVC photostabilizers after 300 hours of irradiation. The experimental results showed that sulfadiazine tin(IV) complexes 1-3 have reduced the rate of photodecomposition constant value of PVC films significantly with comparison to PVC (blank).

A method for constructing curves is proposed that are linear in a wide region and from whose slopes it is possible to determine the rate constant, if a parameter, θ, is calculated numerically from a rapidly converging recurrent formula or from its explicit form. The values of rate constants and parameter θ thus simply found are compared with those found by an optimization algorithm on a computer; the deviations do not exceed ±10%.

The acceleration effect of p-toluidine on the electroreduction of Zn(II) on the mercury electrode surface in binary mixtures water-methanol and water-dimethylformamide is discussed. The obtained apparent and true forward rate constants of Zn(II) reduction indicate that the rate constant of the first electron transfer increases in the presence of p-toluidine. The acceleration effect may probably be accounted for by the concept of the formation on the mercury electrode an activated complex, presumably composed of p-toluidine and solvent molecules.

In this publication we report: (i) the rate constants for reaction of the hydrated electron with 1-hexyn-3-ol ((8.6 ± 0.3) × 108 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 18 °C), cinnamonitrile ((2.3 ± 0.2) × 1010 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 20 °C), and 1,3-diethyl-2-thiourea ((3.5 ± 0.3) × 108 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 22 °C). For cinnamonitrile and diethylthiourea, the temperature dependence up to 200 °C and 150 °C, respectively, is also reported; (ii) the rate constants for the reaction of the hydroxyl radical with 1-hexyn-3-ol ((5.5 ± 0.5) × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 20 °C), cinnamonitrile ((9.2 ± 0.3) × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 21 °C), and diethylthiourea ((8.0 ± 0.8) × 108 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 22 °C). For cinnamonitrile, the temperature dependence up to 200 °C is also reported; (iii) the rate constant for the hydrogen atom reacting with 1-hexyn-3-ol ((4.3 ± 0.4) × 109 dm3 mol−1 s−1 at 20 °C). Keywords: radiolysis, corrosion inhibitors, rate constants.

Ion/molecule reactions in mixtures of ethyl chloride with C1–C4 alkylamines were studied by ICR mass spectrometry. Ethyl cation transfer to C1–C4 alkylamines proceeds mainly through diethylchloronium ions with rate constants ~3 × 10−10cm3 s−1. In the case of s-butylamine the corresponding rate constant is 0.5 × 10−10 cm3 s−1. Key words: ICR mass spectrometry, ion/molecule reactions, ethylchloride, methylamine, ethylamine, propylamines, butylamines
