Abstract
Surface ignition-extinction, homogeneous ignition and autothermal beha vior of ethane-air mixtures are examined over Pt, Pd, Rh, Ir and Ni fo ils for the full range of fuel-air ratios. The observed trends are exp lained in terms of metal-oxygen bond strengths and reaction pathways c atalyzed by these metals.
