Abstract
The kinetics of the dehydroxylation of microcrystalline muscovite was studied in vacuo. The data led to the interpretation that the reaction rate is controlled by two-dimensional diffusion in the reacted product. The activation energy for the dehydroxylation was 54 kcal/mole at < 5 × 10–2 mm Hg. Specific heat capacity measurements gave the values of heat content change and entropy change due to dehydroxylation, 10.2 kcal/mole and 25.6 cal/deg. mole, respectively.Keywords
