It was found that peracetic acid is easily decomposed in a mixture of nitric acid, acetic anhydride and acetic acid at 50°. The mechanism of this decomposition was postulated to involve the unimolecular and induced decomposition of peroxyacetyl nitrate. The kinetics of the decomposition was undertaken and the reaction products were investigated.
