Article Description

Effect of temperature and O 2 pressure on the gaseous species produced during the combustion of aluminum is studied using first principles calculations and considering the thermodynamics of the gas phase equilibrium composed of Al, O 2, AlO, Al 2 O, AlO 2, Al 2 O 2 and Al 2 O 3. AlO partial pressure dominates all the range of O 2 pressures/temperatures. AlO 2 is the second most abundant species at low to intermediate temperatures (1200⿿1727 °C) and Al 2 O at higher temperatures (⿼3300 °C). Al 2 O and Al 2 O 2 are stable when ionized into mass spectrometer. Al 2 O 3, AlO 2 and, to a lesser extent AlO, will decompose, hindering their quantitative observation using this technique.
