Abstract: Kinetic modeling of pyrolysis of acetylene diluted with argon showed a strong influence of small additives of oxygen on the routes of formation of soot nuclei. The influence of oxygen on various channels of formation and consumption of propargyl radicals C₃H₃, which are important precursors of soot formation, as well as the fundamental possibility of controlling the process of soot formation and its properties are considered.

Keywords: acetylene, pyrolysis, oxygen, additives, polyyne-like pathway, polyaromatic pathway, nucleation, soot formation, kinetic modeling.
