- Title
Chain Oxidation of Hydroquinone by Water Activated by Pulsed Hot-Plasma Radiation.
- Authors
Piskarev, I. M.
- Abstract
The interaction of hydroquinone with water activated by hot-plasma pulsed radiation has been studied. In the reactions of hydroquinone with products accumulated in water during irradiation (nitrous and peroxynitrous acids), hydroquinone undergoes chain oxidation to benzoquinone. The mechanism of chain oxidation is analyzed. The decomposition of hydroquinone by corona discharge cold plasma (OH• radicals) was studied. Benzoquinone is not produced by the action of corona discharge; hydroquinone immediately decomposes into smaller molecules. The hydroquinone oxidation process considered can be used to create hydrogen elements based on the hydroquinone ↔ benzoquinone couple.
