Abstract
Oxidation kinetics of formic acid with aqueous hydrogen peroxide (30-70%) has been studied at 45 °C with 0-0.1 M H2SO4 as a catalyst. A kinetic model has been suggested which satisfactorily describes the oxidation process of formic acid to peroxyformic acid.
Keywords: Peroxyformic acid; Hydrogen peroxide; Kinetics; Oxidation.
