Influence of Temperature and Catalyst on the Decomposition of Potassium Chlorate in a Simple DTA-Apparatus.
Wiederholt, Erwin
Journal of Chemical Education, v60 n5 p431-34 May 1983
DTA is a technique in which the temperature difference between sample/reference is measured as a function of temperature, while both are subject to a controlled temperature program. Use of a simple DTA-apparatus in demonstrating catalytic effects of manganese dioxide and aluminum oxide on decomposition temperature of potassium chlorate is described. (JN)
