What is a self-decomposition reaction
Thread Content
The deflagration safety relief standard (AQ) states that this standard does not apply to emergency pressure relief caused by heat release from self-decomposition reactions; I know that decomposition reactions include catalytic decomposition reactions, thermal decomposition reactions, and photochemical decomposition reactions. But what is a self-decomposition reaction? For example: the decomposition reaction of NO, the decomposition reaction of methanol – does the decomposition reaction of ** belong to the category of self-decomposition reactions? What is the difference between it and the several decomposition reactions mentioned above? Can several decomposition reactions occur simultaneously when the same substance decomposes?
It usually refers to substances that can undergo vigorous decomposition at room temperature, or with slight heating
