A. Nagy et al., QUENCHING ANALYSIS OF THE PERMANGANATE-HYDROXYLAMINE OSCILLATOR, The journal of physical chemistry. A, Molecules, spectroscopy, kinetics, environment, & general theory, 101(7), 1997, pp. 1317-1323
We present the experimental part of a study of the permanganate-hydrox
ylamine system at a supercritical Hopf bifurcation aiming at deriving
a mechanism for the reaction. We report quenching data for the additio
n of a number of essential species and for substances supposed to remo
ve essential species, as well as for dilution. In particular, we repor
t successful quenchings with colloid manganese dioxide and with Arabic
gum, which is supposed to inactivate the surface of the colloid.
