  • Abstract
    Active nitrogen is the product of an electric discharge in nitrogen1. It is characterized by a prolonged yellow afterglow and strong chemical reactivity. The latter is mostly due to nitrogen atoms in the ground state. Their homogeneous reactions with gaseous molecules, including hydro-carbons, have been studied extensively2, but this is the first study of reactions of active nitrogen with polymers.
