수용액상에서 과산화수소의 분해반응이 온도 70, 80, 90℃, 질산농도 0-4M 범위에서 수행되었다. 분해반응은 과산화 수소에 대하여 1차반응이었으며, 질산농도가 2M 이상에서 산촉매 현상에 의해 반응속도는 증가되었다. 속도식은 다음과 같다.
ln[H₂O₂]/[H₂O₂]_o = -2.23×10¹⁰ exp(-18200/RT)ㆍt ([H⁺]<2M)
ln[H₂O₂]/[H₂O₂]_o = -[2.23×10¹⁰ exp(-18200/RT)+2.1×10¹² exp(-21200/RT)([H⁺]-2)]ㆍt([H⁺]>2M)
또한 UO₂⁺², Nd⁺³, Fe⁺³, MoO₂⁺², Sr⁺², Cs⁺¹ 같은 금속이온들이 수용액상에서 과산화수소의 분해에 미치는 영향이 조사되었으며 이들 분해속도는 금속이온이 함유되지 않은 수용액상에서의 분해속도와 비교되었다.

The Kinetics of the decomposition of H₂O₂ in the acidic solution was investigated. The investigation was conducted within the range of HNO₃ concentration of 0-4 M at temperature of 70, 80 and 90℃, respectively. The decomposition reaction is first order with respect to [H₂O₂] and is enhanced by acid-catalytic effect above HNO₃ of 2 M. The rates are as follows;
ln[H₂O₂]/[H₂O₂]_o = -2.23×10¹⁰ exp(-18200/RT)ㆍt ([H⁺]<2M)
ln[H₂O₂]/[H₂O₂]_o = -[2.23×10¹⁰ exp(-18200/RT)+2.1×10¹² exp(-21200/RT)([H⁺]-2)]ㆍt([H⁺]>2M)
The effect of UO₂⁺², Nd⁺³, Pd⁺², Fe⁺³, MoO₂⁺², Sr⁺², and Cs⁺ on the decomposition of H₂O₂ in the solution were examined too, and rate was compared with that obtained from metal ion-free solution.
