Figure 3From: Metathesis in the generation of low-temperature gas in marine shalesProduct molecular weight over time, Mowry shale, 11 hours at 100°C. Data from Mowry 2, Table 1. Product MW is the total wt of hydrocarbons generated in one-hour segments divided by the total moles hydrocarbons (AMW) generated in that hour (wt/mol). The straight line is the linear regression line, R2 = 0.98.Back to article page
