AlCl3was used as catalyst in the reaction. The reaction kinetics of aluminum and isopropanol was investigated in this paper. Metallograph showed that the surface of the aluminum bar had corrosive pitting. The reaction was zero order reaction when aluminum was overdosed. Reaction order was 0.75 when isopropanol was overdosed. Finally, catalytic mechanism of AlCl3was investigated and the reaction of corrosive pitting was the same as that in microbattery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
