Abstract
Gas-phase thermal reactions and, more particularly, the oxidation of hydrocarbons exhibit a wide variety of macroscopic behaviour patterns: slow reactions which are strongly inhibited or accelerated by the addition of small quantities of additives, cool flames and oscillations, isothermal explosions, two stage autoignitions, thermal explosions and flames.
