title: [Kinetic and mechanism of ozonation of terephthalic acid].
abstract: The effect of ozonation of terephthalic acid (TA) was evaluated, and the kinetic and mechanism of this process were also discussed. The rate constants of TA with ozone and OH radicals calculated by the relative method are (0.047 +/- 0.010) L x (mol x s)(-1) and 2.28 x 10(9) L x (mol x s)(-1), respectively. The above result was in accordance with the apparent reaction rate constant of ozonation of TA when the process was controlled by chemical reaction. Intermediates detected by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ion chromatography (IC) included benzoic acid, tartaric acid, formic acid and oxalic acid, therefore the possible destruction pathway of ozonation of TA was proposed on the basis of above results.
