Abstract
High temperature (1000 and 1100 degrees C), inert atmosphere pyrolysis of hexachlorobenzene with a residence time of 20s is described. Under these conditions, pyrolysis of hexachlorobenzene leads to the formati on of soot, elemental chlorine Cl-2 polychlorinated aromatic compounds , with hexachlorobenzene conversion approaching 70% at 1100 degrees C. The emphasis is on the qualitative analysis of the soot by means of C -13 NMR spectroscopy, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis and electron microscopy. The soot appears to be carbon black containing gr aphitic structures.
