Spontaneous explosion o/ rich mixtures o/methane and a:r has been studied in the pressure range o] 58 to llO atmospheres and at temperatures down to JSO°C. The activation energies /or both the ignition delay and the rate o/slow reaction preceding explosion lay in the range 39 to 45 hcal/mole. The ai
