Alkenes formed, during the refining of crude oil, by cracking the heavier fractions are present
in transportation fuels in significant amounts, up to as much as 15–20% in gasoline …

The continuous development of a core C 0–C 4 kinetic mechanism generally involves
updating it using reliable kinetics and thermodynamics and may also involve the inclusion of …

A systematic theoretical study of C2 to C6 alkenes reacting with ȮH radical to explore the
kinetics and thermochemistry effects are carried out in this work. The geometries and …

Hydrogen abstraction reactions between hydrocarbons and hydroxyl radicals are important
propagation steps in radical chain reactions, playing a crucial role in atmospheric and …

The presence of two functional groups (OH and double bond) in C5 methyl-substituted enols
(ie, isopentenols), such as 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol (prenol) and 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol …

Synthetic and natural polymeric esters find applications in transport and construction
sectors, where fire safety is an important concern. One polymer that is widely used is poly …

The radicals produced by hydrogen abstraction in the initial fuel decomposition step are
essential in combustion kinetics, but their experimental detection is very challenging …

Oxygen-enriched combustion has attracted interest in the energy sector due to its increased
thermal efficiency and low carbon capture cost compared to 'air'combustion. Experimental …

The reaction of alkenes with hydroxyl (OH) radical is of great importance to atmospheric and
combustion chemistry. This work used a combined ab initio/transition state theory (TST) …

The oxidation of 1-butene and i-butene with and without addition of 1000 ppm NO was
experimentally and numerically studied primarily at fuel-rich (ϕ= 2.0) conditions under high …
