Popis: A self-designed reaction device was used as a promising equipment to investigate the oxidation characteristics and kinetics of rosin pentaerythritol ester (RPE) under UV irradiation. Photo-oxidation kinetics and the initial quantum yield (&Phi
) of RPE were calculated. The initial oxidation product of the photo-oxidation reaction&mdash
peroxide was analyzed by iodimetry. The peroxide concentration is related to the light intensity (I) and the temperature (T), and the increasing T and I would destabilize the RPE by accelerating peroxide forming. Photo-oxidation of RPE follows the pseudo first-order reaction kinetics. The relationship between activation energy and logarithm of light intensity (ln I) is linear, and it is expressed as Ea = &minus
4.937ln I + 45.565. &Phi
was calculated by the photo-oxidation kinetics, and the average value of &Phi
was 7.19% in the light intensity range of 200&ndash
800 &mu
W cm&minus
2. This research can provide fundamental information for application of RPE, and help obtain a better understanding of the stability of rosin esters.
