Multistep thermal dehydration behavior of inorganic hydrates is regulated by the thermodynamic phase relationship between hydrates and the physico-geometrical kinetic constraints of the component reactions.
The reaction pathway and kinetics of the thermal dehydration of D-glucose monohydrate are dramatically altered by the melting of the reactant midway through the reaction.
The multistep thermal dehydration of DCPD to form γ-CPP via DCPA is significantly controlled by the physico-geometrical constraints of the reaction.
Reaction pathway and kinetics of the multistep thermal dehydration behavior of inorganic hydrates are regulated by atmospheric and self-generated water vapor in a geometrically constrained reaction scheme.
