The rate constant, B, at any temperature, [theta] (or T), can be estimated using the Arrhenius law if the reference rate constant ([B.
They are based on the isoconversional principle, which states that the reaction rate at constant extent of conversion is only a function of temperature through an Arrhenius law.
The [gamma] mechanical relaxation has been observed at about -100[degrees]C at 1 Hz (8-11) This transition obeys an Arrhenius law and the activation energy is about 50 kJ/mol (4, 9, 10).
