A strong dependence of the cycle time on the methanol O2 ratio was found in the range of 1.5 to 1.2. During the transition from phase I to phase II the enhancement of the cycle time as a function of the methanol-oxygen ratio does not change, i. e. the cycle time is independent from the transition from an oscillating oxide sample state to a permanently oxidised sample.
