Abstract
Abstract Thermal analysis of the methanesulfonyl chloride (MSC)-water system reacting under both homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions has been performed by means of adiabatic calorimetry. The enthalpy of solution of methanesulfonyl chloride in water at 298 K (− 112 cal mol−1) and the enthalpy of the hydrolysis reaction (ΔH = − 40.8 kcal mol−1) have been experimentally evaluated. A mathematical model describing the reactive behavior of the MSC-water system under heterogeneous conditions has been developed. The model gives rational criteria for assessment of the safe operating conditions in industrial applications.
