       In the course of experiments relative to the Fe-Fe3C-CH4-H2 equilibria, it was found that the C formed by the decomposition of Fe3C reacted readily with H2 at temperatures as low as 400°, the Fe catalyzing the reaction.  A study was made of the CH4=C+2 H2 equilibrium constants in the temperature range 380°-838°, using the C formed as above.  The values obtained are close to those for the reaction in which the C form is β-graphite.
