Abstract

The gravimetric estimation of CO₂-evolved, FT-IR monitoring of the rate of formation of surface species, as well as several other measurements during the <i>n</i>-hexane soot/ozone reaction, has led to the conclusion that soot is a layered structure whose layers are chemically bonded, unlike the graphite structure where the layers are ordered by van der Waals forces. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, electrochemical analysis, microgravimetry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the classical BET surface area determination technique have been employed in this work.
