β¦ Synopsis
The product distribution and kinetics of thermal cracking of JP-10 (exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene) were investigated in an annular tubular reactor at atmospheric pressure, in the temperature range of 903-968 K. No inerts were added with the feed. The major products were methane, ethylene, propylene, cyclopentene, cyclopentadiene, benzene and toluene. The pre-exponential factor, activation energy and overall reaction order for thermal cracking of JP-10 were determined by non-linear regression analysis to be 2.4 Γ 10 13 (m 3 /mol) 0.1 s Γ1 , 256.2 kJ/mol and 1.1, respectively.
