Abstract

Selected examples of dehydration, accompanied by violent disintegration or bloating of the decomposing solid substance are presented. This phenomenon has been explained as a specific case of internal decomposition of solids. A sealed box with compressed gaseous products is proposed as a model of the process. The practical applications of this phenomenon are discussed.

Zusammenfassung

Es werden ausgewählte Beispiele für die Dehydratation, begleitet von heftiger Zersetzung oder Aufblähen der zersetzten Feststoffe dargelegt. Diese Erscheinung wird als ein Spezialfall der internen Zersetzung von Feststoffen beschrieben. Als Modell für diesen Prozeß wird ein abgeschlossener Behälter mit unter Druck stehenden gasförmigen Produkten vorgeschlagen. Praktische Anwendungen dieser Erscheinung werden diskutiert.
