Abstract
The oxidation of cyanogen was studied in the temperature range of 950-1050°C using a flow system and Vycor stirred-flow reactor. The rate was found to be first-order in cyanogen and zero-order in oxygen. The activation energy and log frequency factor are 56.3 (kcal/mole) and 9.2 (using sec−1) respectively. The oxidation products were CO, CO2 and N2O, no other oxides of nitrogen were found. The implications of these observations on the mechanism of NO formation from fuel nitrogen are discussed
