Dynamic method for measurement of rate constants of heterogeneous chemical reactions taking place under the action of laser radiation

N. A. Kirichenko, B. S. Luk'yanchuk, A. N. Sapetskiĭ


Abstract: A new dynamic method is proposed for determination of the rate constants of heterogeneous reactions. This involves measuring the temperature and its derivative during laser heating of solid targets, and also the finite thickness of the layer of the chemical compound being formed. The method can be used to find the rate constants obeying an arbitrary kinetic law and differs from traditional methods of measurement in being more accurate and less laborious.
