In our laboratory, specific attention has been given to identifying the important chemistry leading to the formation of the key precursor molecules to soot particle formation in diffusion flames. To achieve this goal measurements of the important intermediate gas phase species, temperature, and velocity fields have been required. The results of these studies provide a comprehensive data based with which to examine the phenomenon of soot particle inception in flames. In this paper, a review of some of the results of these studies will be given along with a discussion of area of future interest.
