The necessities to understand and characterize the curing behavior of materials or to predict decomposition reaction processes are said to be important reasons to utilize kinetic applications. Designed to monitor chemical systems undergoing contamination induced gaseous decomposition reactions, material oxidation or corrosion involving oxygen consumption, the Fast Thermal Activity Interpreter determines activation energies and rate laws at ambient temperature conditions. This can cause the fire to spread or could result in ignition of flammable gases which are formed in the decomposition reaction. |
