Abstract

Mechanisms for the oxidation of m- and p-xylene were developed with the aid of atmospheric flow reactor tests at temperatures ranging from 1093 to 1199 K. The experimental data suggested that m-xylene is oxidized by sequential oxidation and removal of the methyl side chains while p-xylene reacts through simultaneous, as well as sequential, oxidation of the side chains. The formation of p-xylylene (3,6-bis(methylene)-1,4-cyclohexadiene), postulated to occur during the oxidation of p-xylene, opens up the simultaneous oxidation route and leads to the formation of p-phthalaldehyde

Study Snapshot

High-temperature oxidation mechanisms of m- and p-xylene reveal that m-xylene is oxidized through sequential oxidation and removal of methyl side chains, while p-xylene reacts through simultaneous and sequential oxidation of side chains.
