Advances in Chemistry Research: Volume 14 (Advances in Chemistry Research Series)

This book presents original research results on the leading edge of chemistry research. Each article has been carefully selected in an attempt to present substantial research results across a broad spectrum. Topics discussed include the oxidative decomposition of oxalic acid in aqueous media; the physico-chemical properties of acrylamide; catalysis and the phenomenon of electrochemical promotion; oxalate metabolism in wood-rotting basidomycetes; novel self-oscillating polymer chains; lysophosphatidic acid and heavy metal toxicity.
