New insights into the pyrolysis of -tetradecane using ReaxFF molecular dynamics simulations: Implications for understanding the thermal cracking of subsurface crude oil
The fragmentation of normal alkanes during the cracking of oil under geochemical conditions with high thermal stress is important for the preservation of crude oils in reservoirs and the formation of gaseous hydrocarbons. In this study, the kinetics behavior, cracking mechanisms, and products of n -...
