Abstract:

In-situ high temperature Raman spectroscopic technology was used to study the phase transitions of KHSO4 from ambient temperature to 550 ℃. Raman vibrational wavenumber and scattering activity of KHSO4 crystal and K2S2O7 melt were calculated based on Density functional theory(DFT) and ab initio quantum chemical studies, respectively. The major vibrational modes were assigned, Raman scattering cross sections were also obtained, which led to establish the relationship between the area of the characteristic peak and species concentrations. And thermodynamic enthalpy were also calculated through the Factsage database as a comparison in the process of decomposition to confirm the experimental calculated thermodynamic enthalpy. Results show that the structure of KHSO4 transforms from chain to dimer at 210 ℃, along with the crystal symmetry changing from monoclinic to orthogonal one. It decomposes during 220—550 ℃, which results in the formation of K2S2O7. The reaction enthalpy(ΔH) of (72.59±2.40) kJ/mol was calculated from the equilibrium constant.
