Formation Mechanism of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Fullerenes in Premixed Benzene Flames

摘要

A better understanding of the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and fullerenes Is of practical interest due to the apparent environmental health effects of many PAH an potential industrial applications of fullerenes. In the present work, a kinetic model describing the growth of PAH up to coronene (C_24H_12) and of C_60 and C_70 fullerenes is developed.
