5. Examples of reactions producing incondensable gases
5.1 Nitric oxidation of organic matter
Nitric acid is an oxidizing agent. Heating organic materials such as organic diacids in the presence of nitric acid leads to their progressive degradation with the production of gases, oxides of nitrogen NO x , CO, CO 2 . When the concentration of water in the medium is low, this is a reaction producing incondensable gases, as the vapor pressure of these mixtures is relatively low compared with the pressurization of the enclosures...
