Another analysis handled effectively by use of gc/ir/ms is essential oil characterization which is of interest to the foods, flavors, and fragrances industries (see Oils essential). Even very minor components in these complex mixtures can affect taste and aroma. Figure 4 shows the TRC and TIC for Russian corriander oil which is used extensively in seasonings and perfumes (15). The ir and ms are serially configured. Spectra can be obtained from even the very minor gc peaks representing nanogram quantities in the it flow cell. 

Pyrotechnics is based on the estabflshed principles of thermochemistry and the more general science of thermodynamics. There has been Httle work done on the kinetics of pyrotechnic reactions, largely due to the numerous chemical and nonchemical factors that affect the bum rate of a pyrotechnic mixture. Information on the fundamentals of pyrotechnics have been pubflshed in Russian (1) and English (2—6). Thermochemical data that ate useful in determining the energy outputs anticipated from pyrotechnic mixtures are contained in general chemical handbooks and more specialized pubHcations (7-9).

Many experimenters have adopted the practice of feeding a preformed mixture of steam and water to their test sections, either out of interest in this type of system or else to avoid the power demanded by long channels. The CISE Laboratories in Italy have produced a considerable amount of data of this kind (S4), and a typical example of their results is shown in Fig. 13. The curves have a characteristic swan-neck shape similar to the Russian data for unstable flow conditions shown in Fig. 9, and the burn-out flux values are generally below those for normal steady-flow conditions. 

Russian scientists (Avrorin et al., 1981, 1985) have reported that reactions of complex mixtures of radon, xenon, metal fluorides, bromine pentafluoride, and fluorine yield a higher fluoride of radon which hydrolyzes to form RnO. However, efforts to confirm these findings have been unsuccessful. In similar experiments which have been carried out at Argonne National Laboratory (Stein, 1984), it has been found that radon in the hydrolysate is merely trapped in undissolved solids centrifugation removes the radon from the liquid phase completely. This is in marked contrast to the behavior of a solution of XeO, which can be filtered or centrifuged without loss of the xenon compound. Hence there is no reliable evidence at present for the existence of a higher oxidation state of radon or for radon compounds or ions in aqueous solutions. Earlier reports of the preparation of oxidized radon species in aqueous solutions (Haseltine and Moser, 1967 Haseltine, 1967) have also been shown to be erroneous (Flohr and Appelman, 1968 Gusev and Kirin, 1971).
