Abstract

The reaction between cesium iodide (CsI) and chlorine gas was quantitatively investigated using a thermo-gravimetric analysis system. A comparison between calculated and experimental results on the chlorine molar flow rate revealed that the reaction lies within the gas phase diffusion limited region under the condition of this work. Using the experimental data, the second-order nucleation and growth model was identified as the best geometry function to describe the morphological changes of CsI during the chlorination reaction. Combining the gas phase diffusion equation and geometry function, a reaction rate equation was proposed for the reaction between CsI and Cl2.
