The Arrhenius equation was used in a study to calculate activation energies for the chlorination of four parent parabens (methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and butylparaben) and was found to range from 36–47 kJ/mol. [21] In another study, tap water at 20 °C (68 °F) containing 50–200 μM free chlorine was spiked with 0.5 μM propylparaben and the ...
