摘要
Phase diagrams of benzene have been reported on the basis of data mainly obtained from static compression at various pressure temperature, P-T, conditions. However, there are few data in the high-pressure and high temperature-region of the phase diagram. To understand the physical and chemical behavior of benzene in that region, multiple shock compression of benzene was evaluated by a recovery experimental system that directly analyzed the shocked samples. The shocked samples were composed of the remaining benzene, gases (H-2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6, and C3H8), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with molecular weights from 128 (naphthalene) to 300 (coronene), and amorphous carbon. The abundances of these chemical species varied according to the P-T conditions induced by shock compression. Samples in the lower-pressure and, lower-temperature region of the a-C:H phase in the phase diagram contained a significant amount of benzene as well as amorphous carbon. In the higher-pressure and higher-temperature region of the a-C:H phase, benzene was mostly converted into amorphous carbon (H/C = 0.2), H-2, and CH4. Therefore, the amorphous carbon in the present study was produced by a different pathway than that in previous studies that have detected hydrogenated amorphous carbon (H/C = 1). For earth sciences, the present study can provide basic information on the delivery to the early earth of extraterrestrial organic materials related to the origin of life.
