Effect of Free Methyl Radicals on Slow Oxidation of Propane and Ethane
Description:
Memorandum presenting a study of the effect of free methyl radicals on the slow oxidation of both ethane and propane by means of a photochemical decomposition reaction in a static system. The introduction of methyl radicals into a mixture of propane and oxygen or ethane and oxygen substantially lowered the initiation temperature of the combustion of the hydrocarbon.
