Abstract

In this study, shock-heated decomposition kinetics study of triethyl phosphate (TEP), a simulant of chemical weapon Sarin-GB, was carried out in a shock tube. Mid-infrared, time-resolved laser absorption spectroscopy was used to measure the concentrations of CO, a key intermediate species, behind reflected shock waves.
