Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Surface ignition-extinction, homogeneous ignition and autothermal behavior of ethane-air mixtures are examined over Pt, Pd, Rh, Ir and Ni foils for the full range of fuel-air ratios. The observed trends are explained in terms of metal-oxygen bond strengths and reaction pathways catalyzed by these metals.
