The analysis of the inner reaction-diffusion layer yields the heat flux produced by the exothermic reaction.
This local maximum exists because the pressure behind the shock decreases as a result of the exothermic reaction and/or geometric expansion.
This is an exothermic reaction, so steps must be taken to control the temperature.
Temperature is sometimes increased in a step-wise fashion to control the rate of curing and prevent excessive heat build-up from the exothermic reaction.
This exothermic reaction produces the four industrially significant nitroalkanes: nitromethane, nitroethane, 1-nitropropane, and 2-nitropropane.
Lime hydration is an exothermic reaction that can be performed with water or steam.
An exothermic reaction in the vessel generated enough steam to burst the container.
Conversely, it can be seen on the exothermic reaction plot that as temperature increases, the equilibrium constant decreases.
