Despite the diversity of chemical kinetic methods, by 1960 they no longer were in common use. By the 1980s, improvements in instrumentation and data analysis methods compensated for these limitations, ensuring the further development of chemical kinetic methods of analysis.

Both concepts emphasize the importance of understanding how quickly an event occurs, whether it's cars on a track or substances in a reaction.
