  • The Belousov-Zhabotinskii system measured by a Pt electrode is investigated under external electrode current constraint. A dynamical analysis of the electrode reaction phase has been made by means of a linearized stability criterion valid for three-variable system. It turns out that limit cycle oscillatory regime and dynamical behaviors of the electrode reaction phase have been degenerated under periodical electrode current.

  • A nonlinear theory presented previously is applied to the Oregonator, which is a model for the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction, to study instability near the critical point driven by diffusions. The result shows that the theory may be applied to an actual system.

  • The entropy production in a non-equilibrium state based on the reversible Oregonator model of the Belousov-Zhabotinskii (BZ) reaction system has been studied. The reaction affinity and the reaction rate for the individual steps have been calculated by varying the concentrations of key variables in the system. The result shows a linear relationship between the reaction affinity and the reaction rate in the given concentration range. However, the overall entropy calculated on the basic assumption that the entropy in a reaction system corresponds to the summation of a product of reaction affinity and reaction rate of individual steps shows a nonlinearity of the reaction system. The results well agrees with the fact that the entropy production is not linear or complicated function in a non-linear reaction system.

  • The Belousov-Zhabotinskii (BZ) reaction, which is composed of a bromate-organic acid-metal catalyst and an acidic solution is a commonly employed chemical oscillating reaction system. Cyclohexanedione (CHD) has been used as an initial organic substrate in oscillation systems. We studied each system of 1,4-CHD/BrO3-/Ce4/H+ and 1,3-CHD/BrO3-/Ce4+/H+ oscillating reactions, and studied the control of oscillating characters in a CHD/BrO3-/Ce4+/H+ batch system using a mixed substrate of 1,4-CHD and 1,3-CHD under a fixed total CHD concentration. In the mixed reactions, 1,4-CHD was used as a main substrate and small amounts of 1,3-CHD were used in order to vary the oscillatory behaviours by changing the mixing amount ratio of two substrates.
