Homogeneous production and removal of NO/sub x/ from combustion exhaust gases. Fifth quarterly technical summary report, September 1-November 30, 1979

The rate constant for the reaction of NH/sub 2/ + NO has been measured over the temperature range of 294 to 1200/sup 0/K. It exhibits a decrease in value with increasing temperatures. An upper limit to the rate of reaction of NH/sub 3/ + NO ..-->.. NH/sub 2/ + HNO is also reported. The hydroxyl radical has been identified as one of the products of the NH/sub 2/ + NO reaction, and the implications of this upon the modeling is discussed.
