Abstract
The thermal decomposition of sodium chlorate catalyzed by manganese(IV ) oxide, nickel(II) oxide and copper(II) oxide in the presence of bari um peroxide or hydroxide has been studied by thermogravimetric and dif ferential thermal analysis. Barium peroxide and hydroxide are moderate ly active catalysts when used alone, but both become inhibitors for th e decomposition of sodium chlorate catalyzed by manganese(IV) oxide, n ickel(II) oxide and copper(II) oxide. The inhibiting mechanism is disc ussed.
