Petroleum-derived gasoline is currently the most widely used fuel for transportation
propulsion. The design and operation of gasoline fuels is governed by specific physical and …

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 …

Conventional transportation fuels used in aviation (jet fuel) or in ground transportation
(gasoline, diesel) contain multitude of hydrocarbon components and are difficult to be …

and 2-pentene are components in gasoline and are also used as representative alkene
components in gasoline surrogate fuels. Most of the available ignition delay time data in the …

In this study, we experimentally investigate the high-temperature oxidation kinetics of n-
pentane, 1-pentene and 2-methyl-2-butene (2M2B) in a combustion environment using …

Thermal decomposition of alkenes is critical in many chemical processes. In the alkene
moiety, allylic Csingle bondC bonds are significantly weaker than alkylic and vinylic Csingle …

Laminar flame speeds of three pentene isomers (1-pentene, 2-pentene and 2-methyl-2-
butene) and n-pentane are investigated at equivalence ratios of 0.7–1.6, initial pressures of …

Thermal pyrolysis of HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS, PET and PUR plastic wastes were performed in
a batch reactor equipped with a temperature controlled reflux and the yields of pyrolysis oils …

An experimental study on the explosion characteristics of diethyl ether-air, epoxypropane-air
and n-pentane-air mixtures at various initial ambient pressures (57.4–101.3 kPa) and …

Alkenes are not only constituents of practical fuels but are also key intermediates of the
oxidation and pyrolysis of larger hydrocarbons. The interactions between alkenes and …
