NOMENCLATURE A Pre-exponential factor in Eyring equation a Cross-sectional area D Pure stretch tensor [DELTA] D Stretch increment tensor [e.
The Eyring equation can model the effect of two stresses, such as temperature and relative humidity, on the rate of a reaction or degradation, which can be related to the time-to-failure of the optical disc.
The rate constants may be related to the transition state theory via the well-known Eyring equation (45); however, the individual rate constants for specific reaction site might also be determined using any other available experimental technique or theoretical calculations.
