Abstract
Newly formed planetary nebulae are very interesting objects for the astro-chemist to study, since they appear to involve the interaction of a dense, molecule-rich superwind with the UV field and fast wind from the revealed central star. In the simplest picture each of these winds has shocked and unshocked components but the fast wind remains wholly within the super-wind, and the superwind is exposed only to the dissociating and ionising radiation field (Figure la).
