Abstract:

Abstract:  Diamond anvil cell (DAC) is widely employed in high pressure research field since its invention; it has become an important approach in studying the structure and properties of material under high pressure. In addition, oil generation kinetics is applied in the assessment and exploration of sedimentary basin. In this article, the principle of oil generation kinetics is explained, and the experimental approach to obtain the kinetic parameters is also discussed. Additionally, we have analyzed the application of DAC to the study of oil generation kinetics.
