The main focus of our work continues to be the formulation of reaction mechanisms appropriate to pyrolytic reactions that pertain to the soot formation process; systems studied include toluene, acetylene, allene, ethylbenzene, pyridine, vinylacetylene and 1,2 butadiene. The experimental technique involves dynamic analysis of the reflected shock zone by time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry, construction of reactant and product profiles from the TOF mass spectral data, and computing model profiles from proposed mechanisms.
