OBS

Si on écarte un système de son état d'équilibre, il a tendance à retourner à cet état; la branche de la cinétique qui s'intéresse à cet effet est connue sous le nom de cinétique de relaxation. Les techniques comportent les sauts de température et de pression dans lesquels on fait varier respectivement la température et la pression très rapidement et on étudie ensuite la relaxation.
