Abstract
The decomposition of 1‐chloro‐1,1‐difluoroethane by a radical chain reaction has been studied in a flow reactor in the temperature range from 503 to 773 K. For the initiation of the chain small amounts of added chlorine were photolyzed with a XeCl laser (λ = 308 nm). The formation of the dehydrochlorination and chlorination products, vinylidene fluoride, and 1,2‐dichloro‐1,1‐difluoroethane respectively, is described by a kinetic model. Arrhenius parameters for the two abstraction reactions and were determined by a competition method: Experimental and modeling results are discussed with respect to former studies on the thermal reaction of 1‐chloro‐1,1‐difluoroethane.Keywords
