Abstract
The thermal decompositions of azoethane and azoisopropane were studied in a large excess of ethylene in the temperature interval of 523–623 K. It was demonstrated that under such conditions, the bulk of the alkyl radicals react with ethylene. Via measurements on the consumption of the azo compound and on the formation of gaseous nitrogen, it was possible to determine the rate coefficients of the initiation reactions:
. The resulting data were as follows: For azoethane,
. For azoisopropane,

The thermal decomposition of azoisopropane (AIP) was studied in the presence of various quantities of propylene in the temperature and pressure intervals 498-553 K and 3.33-5.33 kPa. The inhibition functions relating to formation of the products were determined; these proved a good basis for interpr
## Abstract Revised values are given for the rate coefficients of ethane and methane decomposition derived from the laser absorption shock tube measurements performed by Davidson et al. (1992, 1993). This revision results from a reassessment of the methyl absorption coefficient used in the original
