Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Peractic acid in acetic acid solutions of ammonium vanadate decomposes with the predominant formation of O2 and small amounts of CO2, the yield of which increases with increasing temperature and peracetic acid concentration.

  2. 2.

    Both these reactions proceed without the formation of free radicals in amounts detectable by ESR spectroscopy.

  3. 3.

    The rate of oxygen release under conditions in which the formation of CO2 is insignificant obeys a kinetic equation indicating the intermediate formation of a complex between V5+ ions and peracetic acid and the slow conversion of this complex into the observed products.
