| Popis: | The combustion of styrene monomer has been investigated by the technique of kinetic spectroscopy under a variety of oxygen/fuel (O/F) ratios and initiation temperatures. At “initiation” temperatures above 1800°K, combustion is incomplete and results in the formation of soot. At intermediate temperatures (∼1200°K), combustion is complete and free of soot except for the leanest mixture (O/F = 3/1). At temperatures below 500°K, very little monomer dissociates, combustion is exceedingly difficult, and only a small amount of soot is formed. The pyrolysis and combustion of styrene monomer are more sensitive functions of the temperature than of the O/F ratio within the ranges studied. The pyrolysis and combustion of styrene are explained in terms of the disappearance of the monomer and in the behavior of the hydroxyl radical (OH). |
