A Flash Photolysis Study of the HO2 + HCHO -> H2O2 + HCO Reaction between 541 and 656 K
Chem. Phys. Lett., 1992, 195, 25.
Abstract
The kinetics of the reaction (121) have been studied between 541 and 656 K, using the flash photolysis/UV absorption technique. The results are in good agreement with the only existing, single-temperature literature measurement of Baldwin and Walker (1979). An unweighted, logarithmic Arrhenius fit to the present data and the literature measurement gives k(121) shown below over the temperature range 541-773 K.
