Notes:
The thermal decomposition of ethane was studied behind reflected shock waves over the temperature range 1200-1700 K and over the pressure range 1.7-2.5 atm, by both tracing the time variation of absorption at 3.39 μm and analyzing the concentration of the reacted gas mixtures. The mechanism to interpret well not only the earlier stage of C2H6 decomposition, but also the later stage was determined. The rate constant of reactions, C2H6 → CH3 + CH3, C2H6 + C2H3 → C2H5 + C2H4, C2H5 → C2H4 + H were calculated. The rate constants of the other reactions were also discussed.
