Flow microcalorimetry and thermokinetics of liquid mixtures

Abstract

The identification of the calorimetric curves corresponding to liquid mixtures for different injection flows, given by a flow microcalorimeter, permits to classify in a kinetic way the studied mixtures. For this purpose, it is determined the establishment time constant of the mixture (τmix) that allows us to estimate the length occupied by the dissipation (through the parameter λmix) and thus to justify the sensitivity variation obtained in different chemical calibrations.
