Abstract

In this work we select most probable reactions of alkali metal ion Na+ with dimethoxyethane (DXE) molecule. Appropriate gas phase enthalpies of formation for the products were used to calculate scattering cross section as a function of kinetic energy with Denpoh-Nanbu theory. Calculated cross sections were compared with existing experimental results obtained by guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometry. Three body association reactions of ions with DXE is studied and compared to experimental results. Calculated cross sections were used to obtain transport parameters for alkali metal ion in DXE gas.

Highlights

  • Field-assisted sintering technique/Spark plasma sintering (FAST/SPS) is a low voltage, direct current (DC) pulsed current activated, pressure-assisted sintering and synthesis technique [1]

  • As clear and colorless liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, DXE is used as a precursor in production of ceramics [4] or as a sole compound to make other chemicals such as those used in lithium batteries production [5,6,7,8], superconductor production [9], nanoparticles synthesis [10,11,12], in etherification [13] etc

  • Approach presented in [16] is compared with existing experimental data for association cross section as a function of pressure [17] and showed good agreement at energies below few eV

Summary

Introduction

Field-assisted sintering technique/Spark plasma sintering (FAST/SPS) is a low voltage, direct current (DC) pulsed current activated, pressure-assisted sintering and synthesis technique [1]. Approach presented in [16] is compared with existing experimental data for association cross section as a function of pressure [17] and showed good agreement at energies below few eV. Such information is of great importance in atmosferic pressure plasmas containing complex. Calculated cross sections for three body association reaction of selected ions with DXE were compared with existing experimental results obtained by guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometry [18]
