title: Propyl propionate methanolysis kinetics: experiment and modeling.
abstract: In concentrated solutions, the reaction rate constant calculated from the law of mass action depends on a mixture composition. In this study, we suggest a new approach based on the dynamic equilibrium principle and modified equations of van Rysselberghe and de Donder. Experimental results obtained for propyl propionate methanolysis are in good agreement with calculated ones in the entire area of studied compositions. Such a method allows one to describe kinetics of reversible chemical reactions on both sides of the equilibrium.
