SOME ASPECTS OF THE PROCESS OF HETEROPHASE CHEMICAL PROCESSING OF COPPER CHLORIDES IN THE CHAIN REACTION EFFECT MODE

Abstract

It is shown that copper chlorides undergo an effective heterophase chemical conversion under the effect of gas-phase chain reactions (CRE-method) of hydrocarbon oxidation. Depending on the process conditions, the conversion products of anhydrous copper dichloride (CuCl₂) are: CuCl, Cu₂(OH)₃Cl, Cu(OH,Cl)2•3H2O, Cu₂O and completely reduced metallic copper with different crystal structures, has been estalished. The course of the process is determined by the parameters characterizing the radical-chain gas-phase process.
