Abstract:A new volumetric apparatus is described for continuous measurement of the kinetics of the oxidation of metals at high temperatures, and for measurement of adsorption and chemisorption of gases on solids. The measurement of the kinetics of oxygen fixation is performed automatically with very high precision. The oxidation of copper has been used to test the performance of the apparatus.Studies on the mechanisms of reactions in solid-gas systems, which include such processes as the thermal decomposition of solids… Show more
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.
