This book is a progressive presentation of kinetics of the chemical
reactions. It provides complete coverage of the domain of chemical
kinetics, which is necessary for the various future users in the
fields of Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Materials Science,
Chemical Engineering, Macromolecular Chemistry and Combustion. It
will help them to understand the most sophisticated knowledge of
their future job area.
Over 15 chapters, this book present the fundamentals of chemical
kinetics, its relations with reaction mechanisms and kinetic
properties. Two chapters are then devoted to experimental results
and how to calculate the kinetic laws in both homogeneous and
heterogeneous systems. The following two chapters describe the main
approximation modes to calculate these laws. Three chapters are
devoted to elementary steps with the various classes, the
principles used to write them and their modeling using the theory
of the activated complex in gas and condensed phases. Three
chapters are devoted to the particular areas of chemical reactions,
chain reactions, catalysis and the stoichiometric heterogeneous
reactions. Finally the non-steady-state processes of combustion and
explosion are treated in the final chapter.
