In a subsequent research by others, a similar water treatment technique for reducing reaction temperature was also investigated and confirmed [9, 10].
The enhanced heat and mass transfer in the microreactor was useful to reduce the reaction temperature and residence time to synthesize monodisperse CdS NCs.
Alkali metal halide (MX, M=Na or K, X=Cl, Br or I) could reduce the reaction temperature by about 100 °C through forming volatile tungsten oxyhalide species, which facilitated the delivery of the precursor to the growth substrate.
After desired crystal growth, the reaction was arrested by reducing the reaction temperature down to ambient conditions.
The selectivity towards the HDO product was further improved on reducing the reaction temperature to 373 K.
Besides these, reports on addition of chemical agents like sodium carbonate and alkaline peroxide in wet oxidation reduced the reaction temperature, improved hemicellulose degradation and decreased the formation of inhibitory components such as furfurals and furfuraldehydes (Banerjee et al. 2011).
A bi-functional ceria-zirconia successfully reduced the reaction temperature to 200 °C but at the expense of lower conversion of 85%.
We demonstrate that by reducing the reaction temperature and time, and by using an optimal amount of iodine, we can maximize the yield of transient DMDS-1 adducts for alkenone structure determination.
The same study also found that reducing the reaction temperature (25 °C) and the concentration of K2HPO4 (0.02 M) resulted in larger ratio between the hollow core diameter to the external diameter of the microspheres, thought to be due to a more efficient packing of the fine HA particles.
Stereocontrol is a kinetic phenomenon, therefore reducing the reaction temperature enables an increase in iso-selectivity, leading to a maximum Pi value of 0.89 at 257 K.
