Positive and negative ions ofthe type Czn (3062n6210) and C,,,,, H, (x< 2), called polyhedral ions in this Letter, have been found in hydrocarbon flames. They are formed simultaneously with the smallest soot particles at the end of the reaction zone succeeding the formation of polycyclic aromatic hy

The positive and negative ions in atmospheric pressure flames of C2H 2 + 02 + N 2 have been examined mass spectrometricaUy with the much improved sampling systems now available. There is clear evidence that some (but not all) ionic reactions are fast enough to proceed in the time of around 1 ~ts tak
Atomic ion mobilities have been directly determined in C2H2/air and CO/O 2 flames using optical excitation to create instantaneously a pencil of ions along the laser beam and then measuring ion velocities in an applied electric field. The ions were chosen to provide a wide range of atomic weights (L
The calculation of ion currents in hydrocarbon flames was attempted to test a mechanism involving temperature dependence. Values of [CHI and [O] in the flame are available in some cases of premixed methane-oxygen flames, but not for the diffusion flame of H 2 and air containing hydrocarbon. For the
