SOLID STATE CHEMICAL REACTIONS (WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE KINETICS OF THE REACTION OF INORGANIC WXIDANTS WITH POLY-DIVINYLBENZENE)

Abstract

A study was made of the heterogeneous oxidation reaction between a copolymer of 40% p-divinylbenzene and 60% p-ethylstyrene (p-DVB, dec. 440-460 C without melting) and various inorganic oxidants such a: KClO4, NaClO4, KClO3, KBrO3,AND KIO3. Experiments were carried out with tablets prepared from various oxidant-substrate mixtures. In some cases the physical instbility of the tabets (especially of those containing a high percentage of pDVB) limited the oxidant-substrate ratios (KIO3-pDVB talets containing more than 12% pDVB disintegrated on handling). Preliminary experiments were carried out measuring the ignition times at various temperatures and in open tubes. (Author)
