Arrhenius kinetic constants, the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor, of energetic material $BKNO_3$ are estimated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Different from the conventional way, the activation energy was estimated more precisely through DSC aging trial, and the consumed fraction by heat was calculated by comparing the integration of heat flow. We suggested the condition of accelerated aging test for the energetic material $BKNO_3$ and reconsidered the meaning of the thermal accelerated aging.

The stability and solubility of piroxicam in propylene glycol (PG), polyethylene glycol (PEC), and PG-water cosolvents have been studied by using high performance liquid chromatography. The degradation rate followed an apparent first-order kinetic and the reaction rate constants at 70, 80, and $90^{circ}C$ were determined. From these rate constants, the activation energy and the rate constant of piroxicam at $25^{circ}C$ in pure PG calculated by Arrhenius equation were 23.34 kcal/mole and $7.0\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;day^{-1}$, respectively. Both of PG and PEG increased the solubility of the drug, but PEG was more effective.

Interactions between hydrodesulfurization of thiophene and hydrodenitrogenation of pyridine and the kinetic analysis were studied over $Ni-W/\gamma-Al_2O_3$ catalysts and this study was made at temperatures ranging from 473-673 K and at total pressures ranging from 10-25 $\times 10^5$ Pa. Hydrodesulfurization of thiophene was inhibited by presence of pyridine at all temperatures studied, and the rate of pyridine hydrodenitrogenation was slower than that of thiophene hydrodesulfurization in the operating conditions. Pyridine hydrodenitrogenation was also inhibited by the presence of thiophene at low temperatures but was enhanced by the thiophene at temperatures higher than 613K. Thiophene reaction rate was determined by multiple linear regression analysis using Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson model and the result was given to be $r = kP_T^p_H/(1+K_Tp_T+K_Pp_P)^2$. At each temperature, reaction rate constants and absorption equilibrium equilibrium constants were determined and the activation energy was 12.98 kcal/gmol from Arrhenius plot.

Irreversible photobleaching of bacteriorhodopsin (bR), namely denaturation induced by illumination of visible light, was investigated by absorption kinetic measurements. The denaturation kinetics revealed that light illumination significantly enhanced the structural decay of bR. The kinetic analyses showed that the molecular structure of bR denatures according to a single-exponential decay, whereas irreversible photobleaching has two decay components. The decay constant of the slow component of photobleaching is almost same as that in the dark. An Arrhenius plot of the denaturation kinetic constants for the fast and slow components showed similar activation energies of approximately 19 kcal/mol.

The rate constants of the hydrogen-deuterium exchange of 8-CH groups in 5'-rAMP and 5'-GMP were measured by laser Raman spectroscopy. The Arrhenius activation energies calculated from the rate constants measured as a function of temperature were similar for both compounds. However, the effects of pD on exchange rate constants were different for the two compounds. Our kinetic data support the exchange reaction mechanism involving an ylide type intermediate.

The kinetics of the reaction between carbonyl sulfide and aqueous monoethanolamine were studied over a range of temperature (298-348 K) and amine concentrations using a wetted-sphere absorber. The key physicochemical properties used to interpret the data included the solubility and diffusivity of the COS in the aqueous amine solution. The experimental data were interpreted using a zwitterion mechanism, which produced an Arrhenius plot with third-order kinetic rate constants. The fit of these data was $K_3$=$1.32\times10(sup)10exp(\frac{-6136}{T}}$

A Very Low Pressure Reactor (VLPR) is constructed for the kinetic study of atom-molecule bimolecular elementary reactions. The basic principles and the versatility of the method are described. By using the VLPR technique the forward (k1) and the reverse (k-1) rate constants for Br atom reaction with trimethylsilane are studied; Br + $(CH_3)_3$SiH k1 ${\leftrightarrow}$ k-1 HBr + $(CH_3)_3$Si. From the kinetic data and the entropy estimation the bond dissociation energy for Si-H bond in trimethylsilane is calculated to be 90.1 kcal/mole $({\pm}1.1$ kcal/mole). The Arrhenius parameters for k1 are found to be log A = 10.6 l/mole·sec, $E_a$ = 4.4 kcal/mole respectively. For the comparison purpose analogous reaction for carbon compound ; Br + $(CH_3)_3$CH ${\rightarrow}$ HBr + $(CH_3)_3$C was also studied. The corresponding rate constant and equilibrium constant at $25^{\circ}C$ are found to be 2.67 ${\times}$ $10^6l$/mole${\cdot}$sec and 160 respectively.

A two-dimensional thermal response and ablation analysis code for predicting charring material ablation and shape change on solid rocket nozzle is presented. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques have been used to characterize the thermal decomposition constants for Arrhenius parameters. Two heterogeneous reactions involving carbon and the oxidizing species of $H_2O$ and $CO_2$ are considered and determined by Zvyagin's ablation model and kinetic constants. The moving boundary problem and mesh moving are solved by remeshing-rezoning method in MSC-Marc-ATAS program. The difference between the calculated and experimental value of char and ablation thickness is up to 20%. For the performance prediction of thermal protection systems, this method will be integrated with a three-dimensional finite-element thermal and structure analysis code through the real time sensing of in-depth temperature and heat flux.

Characteristics of Char-$CO_2$ gasification for petroleum coke, biomass and mixed fuels were compared in the temperature range of $1,100{\sim}1,400^{\circ}C$ using TGA (Thermogravimetric analyzer). Kinetic constants with respect to reaction temperature were determined by using different gas-solid reaction models. Also activation energy (Ea) and pre-exponential factors ($K_0$) in each models were calculated by using Arrhenius equation and then were compared with experimental values to determine reaction rate equation for char-$CO_2$ gasification. Reaction time for $CO_2$ gasification decreased with an increase of reaction temperature. Also, the activation energy of $CO_2$ gasification reaction for mixture with petroleum coke and biomass decreased with increasing biomass contents. This indicates that mixing with biomass could bring synergy effects on $CO_2$ gasification reaction.

The hydrogen abstraction reaction of $CF_3CH_2CHO$ + OH has been studied theoretically by dual-level direct dynamics method. Two stable conformers, trans- and cis-$CF_3CH_2CHO$, have been located, and there are four distinct OH hydrogen-abstraction channels from t-$CF_3CH_2CHO$ and two channels from c-$CF_3CH_2CHO$. The required potential energy surface information for the kinetic calculation was obtained at the MCG3-MPWB//M06-2X/aug-cc-pVDZ level. The rate constants, which were calculated using improved canonical transitionstate theory with small-curvature tunneling correction (ICVT/SCT) were fitted by a four-parameter Arrhenius equation. It is shown that the reaction proceeds predominantly via the H-abstraction from the -CHO group over the temperature range 200-2000 K. The calculated rate constants were in good agreement with the experimental data between 263 and 358 K.
