Applying a unified process kinetic equation to advanced materials process analysis: Characterization of the kinetics of isothermal microwave‐assisted chemical syntheses
Abstract:Rate-enhancement of any isothermal, isobaric chemical synthesis conducted under resonant microwave (RM) irradiation versus the same process activated by conventional field-free heating has been attributed to a reduction in activation enthalpy of the process. This report applies a unified process kinetic equation (UPKE) to demonstrate and characterize non-thermal microwave effects (NTME) on kinetics-enhancements observed in isothermal microwave-assisted chemical syntheses (IMACS). The UPKE, derived from a mesos… Show more
