Fall 2013
Two alkyl-bridged aromatic compounds, with molecular weights of 899.70 g/mol and 1127.99 g/mol, were thermally cracked with 1-hexadecene, 1- octadecene, or trans-stilbene, in a batch microreactor at 375–430 °C for 15 to 45 min. The objective of the study was to investigate the kinetics of the...

Resolution of reaction pathways to coke formation during the upgrading of heavy resources, such as the vacuum residue fraction of bitumen, is hampered by the extreme complexity of these materials. Alternatively, probing the molecular–level reactions and cracking kinetics of model compounds that...
