Thermal Decomposition of Formamide

Unimolecular decomposition of formamide via direct chemical dynamics simulations.

Formamide (NH2CHO), being the simplest organic molecule containing an amide functional group, serves as a prototype to study protein and peptide chemistry. Formamide has been found in Comets and interstellar media and its decomposition results in smaller molecules such as NH3, CO, HCN, HNCO, etc. These smaller molecules are considered to have been potential precursors for the formation of compl...

Thermal stability and thermal decomposition of sucralose

Several papers have been described on the thermal stability of the sweetener, C12H19Cl3O8 (Sucralose). Nevertheless no study using thermoanalytical techniques was found in the literature. Simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and infrared spectroscopy, have been used to study the thermal stability and thermal decomposit...

The Role of Boron in Thermal Decomposition of Ammonium Perchlorate

Simultaneous thermal analysis (STA) method has been applied to study decomposition reactions of AP under a flowing nitrogen atmosphere and static air. Results obtained indicate that a phase transformation occurs prior to the decomposition reaction. Decomposition takes place exothermally in two stages, first stage of decomposition could be suppressed by the controlled heating programme. Addi...

Synthesis of Chromium Oxide Nano Particles by Thermal Decomposition Method

Disclosed is a method of preparing pigmentary chromium oxide nano particles having 50 percent particle size less than about 100 nm. Preparation of nano chromium (III) oxide is investigated by thermal decomposition method. According to the disclosed method, a substantially dry solid composition of potassium dichromate and carbon active is heated in CO2 atmosphere to a temperature of about 60...
