The kinetics of oxidation of oxyethylated isononylphenols under the action of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of inorganic salts

The influence of some inorganic salts on the oxidative destruction of oxyethylated isononylphenols under the action of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of iron(III) ions was studied. It was shown that nitrate anions did not decrease the effectiveness of the oxidation of oxyethylated isononylphenols, chloride ions could completely inhibit the reaction, probably, because of the occurrence of a competing redox process, whereas the presence of sulfate ions transformed the system into a multiphase mixture, which negatively influenced oxidation.
