Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are considered to be an important component of the interstellar medium. However, no formal identification is possible at present, due to a lack of laboratory gas-phase spectral data for most of them. In order to characterize the PAHs formed in a hydrocarbon rich flame, we use a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. A large variety of conditions have been investigated (fuel, pressure, unburnt gas velocity and mixture ratio). Evolutions in concentrations profiles have been as a function of the distance to the burner. A detailed survey of the propylene flame has also been carried out and the key parameters for PAHs formation have been determined.
