Cu(II)-catalysed decomposition of hydrogen peroxide at alkaline pH in the presence of etidronic acid (HEDP) showed a sigmoid kinetic profile typical of autocatalytic reactions. However, the reaction abruptly stopped well before all hydrogen peroxide had decomposed, and further addition of Cu(II) and HEDP did not restart the reaction. Results of a mechanistic study suggest that the reaction invo...

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by mixed ligand cobalt (II) and nickel (II) complexes as heterogeneous catalysts and adsorbate on alumina has been investigated by measuring the evolution of oxygen at different time intervals between 35-60C. The effect of variation in the concentration of hydrogen peroxide and in the quantity of catalysts on the extent of disproportionation has ...

Pure and ZnO-doped Ni0.1Co0.9Fe2O4 catalyst were prepared by co-precipitation method and thermal decomposition in air calcinated at 400-700°C and that treated with different amounts of zinc nitrate (0.46-2.25 w% ZnO). X-ray powder diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and BET analysis of nitrogen adsorption isotherms investigated the crystalline bulk structure and the surface area ...

The rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide has been measured in aqueous, concentrated (0.1–1M) reagent-grade sodium carbonate liquors and compared with that in sodium hydroxide liquors at the same pH, temperature, and ionic strength. Over the ranges of temperature (303–323 K), pH (10.0–10.6), and ionic strength (1.5–3.0M), and without peroxide-stabilizing additives, hydrogen peroxide decomp...

Hydrogen peroxide is formed in solutions of glutathione exposed to oxygen. This hydrogen peroxide or its precursors will decrease the viscosity of polymers like desoxyribonucleic acid and sodium alginate. Further knowledge of the mechanism of these chemical effects of oxygen might further the understanding of the biological effects of oxygen. This study deals with the rate of solution of oxygen...

The kinetics of the iodine oxidation by hydrogen peroxide is a complicated function of the concentrations of iodine, hydrogen peroxide, perchloric acid and iodate. A proposed model in eight steps explains the new experimental results. It explains also the effect of the concentrations at the steady state of the hydrogen peroxide decomposition catalyzed by iodine and iodate. Without iodate added ...

In concentration of hydrogen peroxide, first, the solution should be quite pure, and then, it concentrate with methods such as vacuum distillation and cooling crystallization, because impurities in the hydrogen peroxide solution in high concentrations are causing decomposition of this substance; that is very dangerous. The purpose of this article is separation of chromium and magne...

The decomposition rates of several monochlorophenol by sonolysis were enhanced by the presence of hydrogen peroxide. An optimum concentration of hydrogen peroxide was observed for achieving maximum sonolysis rate of monochlorophenol. The decomposition rates of 3-chlorophenol by sonolysis were higher than those for 2- and 4-chlorophenol for most experiments conducted, suggesting that the ring st...
