An investigation into the influence of autoignition chemistry and charge cooling under 'Beyond RON' operating conditions on the improved knock resistance of ethanol over iso-octane
The growing interest in alcohol fuels has led to the finding that benefits in terms of efficiency and power compared to traditional petrols can be gained due to the improved knock resistance of alcohols. This improved knock resistance has been widely credited to the differences in autoignition …

A study of the physics and chemistry of knock in modern SI engines and their relationship to the octane tests
… it. Hence, the Research and Motor Octane Number (RON and MON) tests were established in 1928 such that a fuel with a higher RON and MON is less likely to knock than a fuel with a lower value. However, engine and fuel technology has evolved since 1928, and thus the relevancy of these tests for …

Catalytic Degradation of Waste Polymers
… alkanes, which have low relative octane number (RON) and so cannot be used in internal combustion engines. However, a suitable catalyst can help to branch straight alkane chains and so give high RON fuels that can be blended into commercial fuels. An extensive thermogravimetric study of …

A CFD study of fuel evaporation and related thermofluid dynamics in the inlet manifold, port and cylinder of the CFR octane engine
… and Materials (ASTM) for Research Octane Number (RON) and Motor Octane Number (MON) ratings. Recent research has been focused on determining whether the numerical difference between RON and MON, known as Octane Sensitivity (OS), is a result of the chemical or physical properties of the fuel. The …

The roles of hepatocyte growth factor family members in androgen-regulation of human hair growth. A comparison of the expression of hepatocyte growth factor family members, HGF and MSP, and their receptors, c-Met and RON, in isolated hair follicles from normal and androgenetic alopecia (balding) scalp.
