Ignition delay times of hexane isomers are investigated behind shock waves. Initial concentrations of fuel oxygen and argon and the post shock temperature were varied systematically in order to establish the influence of these parameters on the ignition delay time. The fuels used were n-octane, 2-methylpentane and 3-methylpentane. The temperature range of the experiments was 1100--1700 K and the initial pressures were 55--200 torr. These experiments are compared with a similar set of experiments performed on octane isomers (n-octane; 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and 2,3,4-trimethylpentane), and the reaction mechanism developed for them.
