Abstract: In the H2O2-KSCN-CuSO4-NaOHreaction system, cupric ion plays an essential role for batch and CSTRoscillation. Since Cu 2+(or Cu+) can be precipitated as CuOH, CuSCNand Cu(OH)2, its concentration has a complex influence on the amplitude and initial high flowrate of oscillation. The pHdrop resulted from the oxidation of KSCNby hydrogen peroxide inhibited the oscillation. The kinetic nature of oscillation should be the H2O2 decomposition catalyzed by cupric and thiocyanate.

Key words: Cupric ion, pH, Nonlinear reaction
