Plasma decomposition of carbon-bearing reactants

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The decomposition of benzene and acetylene in electric carbon arc and non-equilibrium discharge plasmas was studied in order to produce carbon gas. The composition of various gaseous and condensed products (fullerenes, amorphous carbon and graphite, amino acids, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons) were analysed and discussed in relation to the operating parameters.
